Well Ive tried everything cant get past it. Running windows XP, Windows+router firewalls both down, no anti-virus, set the port except the 2300-2400 doesnt work because it wont let me use the dash to set a field.

What kind of router are you using?

I've had better luck just adding my PC's IP address to the Router's DMZ (if that is gibberish to you I can explain it in greater detail >.<)

Might also try putting your computer in DMZ mode from the router, that's what I had to do to get past the firewall message ;)
But, if you do that, you don't want to mess with the port setting, you do one or the other, not both.
On some routers you have to put all the computers in DMZ mode, some kinds you can select an individual computer, mine did, I have a Verizon FIOS router.
Also if you're trying to do it wirelessly, you may not be able to, might need to be hardwired.
