Here's how my router setup looks like.
It was painfull for my brain to learn port forwarding; and yes I used the "DMZ" thing until I found out how to make a static IP for my machine in our home network.
My son would be plugging in different machines and my machine's IP would change almost daily.
Once I made a static IP I don't worry about it anymore.
If the other machine's IPs do creep up to .110 then I'll move mine way up to .150 (the limit).
Hope this helps.
Now if you're talking about on Hyperlobby, that's another whole pain to set up to host a game.
If you need help with that, I'll have to dig around for the help I got some time back.
