This is how to be a server through your netgear router. I figured this out for someone so I figured more ppl would like to know how.
Go into the netgear router program. Goto the advanced page, then goto Ports. That is where you enter this information...
Start port number is 27660. For each player you need to add 1. So if you plan on having 32 players then add 32 to 27660 and put that number in the end port. Then put the ip to the computer you are using to host. To find that ip you can either go into the main menu and goto maintance then into DHCP table, your computer name will be in there. Or you can just open up your command prompt and enter "ipconfig" without the quotes.
I hope I helped anyone that this was a concern to!
