Buddy can't access site without dialing LD

Here's a problem a buddy of mine is having on another board, and I figured here's a place to get him some help. The board is http://www.andersonlimited.com/forum, which I'm only posting here for possible IP purposes. Here is his problem, any advice would be appreciated:

This isn't fair!! I want on the board.

So I'm in KS for 4 days before I head to MO for the Malibu Meet. I'm dialing up with Earthlink here in the Wichita Area, and I can't get to the board. I'm actually dialing up long distance now to type this message. (I haven't been able to get XP to dial up with a calling card).

Anyways....Here's what I get.

It looks like I'm using the IP address ranges:
216.236.17.xxx
216.236.18.xxx

The numbers I've used:
216.236.18.9
216.236.18.55
216.236.17.236
216.236.18.222

I contacted Earthlink and they told me that everything was fine on their end, and that the problem is my computer...I know it is because I'm dialed up on their network.

So anyone know how I can fix this? I don't want to have to dial up long distance to get on this site, I don't want to have to switch ISP's here in KS. Is there any way to change the 'route' in which I go to this site? Try and get off of Earthlink's network?

Someone's gotta help me!!

Thanks guys!
