None of them worked. Same thing showed up. I have an Arris motum and Iv'e been to Portforward.com, but they dont have my Model number. At this point, im pretty much screwed until I get a better router.

No, go to:
cmd -> type 'ipconfig' -> look for "default gateway"
That should be what you type in search bar.

It's not hard to find your local / internal IP address. Follow the steps that Ryandacod6 posted.

The gateway IP posted is not a public internet address, that IP range is within the class B private network address space (172.16.0.0/12) however its very unusual to see anything other than the class C range used within a home environment. This is basic private IP space in networking terms, 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12 and 192.168.0.0/16 are all private IP networks assigned by the IANA.
Check the back of your router and see if its got a management URL on there, from what I can see, its probably your routers web interface running on another port. If that doesn't work, you could always try a port scanning program to see what ports are open on that gateway and try and access them from there.

Does it matter what port you use to host it?

No not directly, as long as no other process on your server is using that UDP port, and you can forward it through the firewall. Typically a port larger than 1024 is chosen as the IANA allocates "official" ports below that number. But, you can run it on any port you like. There is no physical limitation which is set to define which ports you can and cant use for what services.
