Opening up ports?

[Shadowslegacy]

Im using a Router and it wont let my Boot5Zones connect to the world. If I direct connect through modem however it will let me connect. Im thinking this is b/c I need to open some ports, anyone know how?

Also I donno if u might need this info but im on a Wireless B router, but the comp im hosting on is hotwired to the router.

Every router is diferent, consult the paperwork that came with it, or if you are like me and the trash ate it, go to the web site for your router, look up "port forwarding" or "DMZ"
