Point of clarification

[steve menard]

a) setup your stations and D-Link with STATIC Internal IPs
so you  know which station is which for your portforwarding

b) visit www.portforward.com to find the specific steps to get your two 
firewalls to forward the ports to the stations

<http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/routerindex.htm>


c)EXAMPLE
    at modem forward port 15900  to D-Link static IP
    forward at D-Link port 15900 to server port 5901
have server listen on 5901

    at modem forward port 25900  to D-Link static IP
    forward at D-Link port 25900 to wireless port 5902
have wireless listen on 5902

    at modem forward port 35900  to D-Link static IP
    forward at D-Link port 35900 to desktop port 5903
have desktop listen on 5903

substitute port numbers as required
