Ron's right. If you look at the manufacturer's documentation, it should tell you somewhere what the IP address of your router is. If you type that into the address panel in your browser, you'll get access to the control panel of the router.
On my router I select 'advanced' (I have to enter a username and password which as Ron says will probably be Admin and Admin by default.
Then select 'application sharing' - and there should be an option for creating an entry for a new game. Unfortunately they're all slightly different in the way they present themselves. In mine, the settings are: Protocol: TCP Port Range: 45321-45321 Translate to: 45321-45321
If you post here the details of which router you've got, maybe one of the other folks will know about it? Gary was always good at this stuff, I recall.
