Can you put it on an isolated LAN or use a crossover cable between it and 
a PC, and use a network sniffer to monitor IP addresses?  If so, you 
should be able to get the IP from it through the sniffer.

As for the unlock kit, I'd like to learn more about that, too - exactly 
what it does, what it costs, etc.
