If "nat" means what I think it does (Network Address Translation; recently
devised devices to translate IP addresses so private internal networks can
reuse addresses in the public space), it's probably an artifact of being
behind the NAT.
On the otherhand, there was (for a LONG time) a `NAT' box at WC, which
was actually a router... (Network Applicance or something? It's a
while back now). That's probably what they have...
