Also you need to find out the IP of your router netgear by defult should be 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1. when prompted it will ask you to log in, on the bottom of your router should have a log in, something like admin for the username and password for the password, could be different go ahead and check on the router and see what it says, then from there log on. This will help if you wish to DMZ your device http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/1118/~/how-do-i-configure-a-device-to-be-in-the-dmz-on-my-netgear-router%3F
This should help with port fowarding
NOW YOU MUST SET A STATIC IP IF YOU DONT WHEN YOU RESET YOUR ROUTER YOU WILL LOSE THE PORTS FOR THAT IP YOU ASSIGNED DUE TO THE DHCP RESETTING!
That should help for the static ip^
