Basically, map the ports from the router to the machine for both inbound and outbound

Sorry for insisting on this, but how can you actually map the ports? ;(

You would forward the ports mentioned in the KB article to the machine behind the router that you want to send/recieve files from. This should have an IP of something like: 192.168.1.101.

for multi computers dont forward just allow those ports

i have the same router, they might even have a preset that u just have to turn on. i would have to check when i get home
