I never shut down my machine and always leave it on sleep.

Since i do not shutdown the machine I presume that my Ip address does not change. Do i therefore need to set up a Static IP, before i can forward the ports?.

Thanks once again for all your help

IF YOUR NOT NETWORKED WHY DO YOU NEED A ROUTER ?
