Okay, so I want to host a dedicated 'The Specialists' roleplay server (classic, only AMX and Talkarea - HARBU MUST DIE). Of course, I chose this laptop to host it with, 3 GHz, about 750 MB of RAM, I'm all set. So I'm with my family on our little New England trip, we get to our final stop, our friend's house by the beach in Conneticut. They don't have a router, so I'm setting this entire thing up over a week to finally get home, plug it in the router, start the server, invite my friends to join and after hearing their IM's, let out a little,

"Buh?"

The dedicated server is apparently hosting on my LAN, obvious because the IP is 192.168.0.---. I need to open up to the WAN (the internets) and apparently I need to open port 27015 or something for that... does anyone have any idea what to do?

Find manual-find IP address of router-go into router, go to port forwarding-ender port to be forwarded and the ip address of your computer- save to router and bask.
