Well... the other port-forwarding tutorials are hard... Going into router sites... well heres a eaisier version.

Step 1: Start and run and type in 'cmd'
Step 2: Type in 'ipconfig/all' without the ''
Step 3: Look for your IP Address or IPv4 Address and Default Gate Way Address.

Step 4: Click Start again and run your control panel.
Step 5: Click on 'Network Connections
Step 6: Find your LAN (Local Area Connection) and right click and then click properties.

Step 7: Theres going to be 'Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)' Double Click it.

Step 9: THERE! You just got a static IP/ portforwarded!

Thanks for looking at this short thing =D... Other people can make their own static IP on their router site... but other routers might NOT. Thats why I posted this! =D

If you realized, this sum1udontkno guy is a bumping freak.
Look at the first post date.
I swear this guy should be banned for bumping like 50 threads.

You can't forward ports with changing the LAN IP (This could collide with other lan IP's too, as my eminent router uses 192.168.8.XXX for LAN IP's, and I saw 192.168.10.XXX too).

Just port forward with using your router (the manual should give you enough info, if not; ).

you won't be able to connect to the internet when you change the LAN IP I believe. If you want to fix that, just click on the same page, Obtain IP ADdress automaticly.

It does work, it's what I do on my server, you just need a little forethought.
The DCHP in my router is set to supply local IP addresses in the range 192.168.xxx.2 to 192.168.xxx.49
I simply fix my server address at 192.168.xxx.50 that way there can be no contention with DHCP supplied addresses.
It also makes it much easier to port forward as you know exactly which IP address the server is on and it will never change.
