Remember you need to do it using these steps:

1. Set up a static ip 1st. This is the most important step otherwise you'd be wasting your time if not done or done correctly. Pay attention to this b/c this is where most people make errors if mistakes are made.
2. Forward a port.
3. Finally, within LW: Manual port forward instructions & sample image & 2 posts after that.
I appreciate all the help, but can you break that down even a little bit more, Im still not sure how I need to do all this stuff, and Im kinda afraid to mess around with it, as my router has acted strange in the past.....thanks in advance!
