Complicated connection issues, hosting a server.
#2

Hmmm...

All I can think of is do the port forward. Yes, noone can connect to it, but at least then anything sent to your router will got to your PC's internal IP. So to fix this you'll have to port forward twice; once on the router, then on the host computer.

Once you figure out how to port forward on the host pc, you should be set.

So; so put it in steps:
1. Forward your ports on the router.
----Anything sent to your router will now go to 192.168.2.4:7777.
2. Setup your ICS connection so that it forwards port 7777 from your router to your true Global IP.
----If your Host PC is a windows system, you can use ipconfig to find the ICS IP addess.
----You'll probably have to ****** how to do this; as you never mentioned your Host Computer OS
3. Once you have forwarded on your router and the Host ICS, you "should" be able to connect using your GlobalIP (from whatismyip.com or something)

Hope this helps!

If you would like some help, I will happily do whatever I can via MSN. PM me if needed...
