Hi there!

About your "little" router problem:
1. Do you configure your router with your browser (e.g. entering the Router IP and
accessing the config-menu) or do you work with Telnet?

2. If you are using the browser method, enter the menu and click "System Config" or something like that.
There should be a table for "Port Forwarding". AFAIK the FL Server is running on Port 2300.
Next, click on a free box in the table. You have to enter the IP of the Router and the IP of your own PC.
For Example:

From: To: Port:
192.168.0.1 192.168.0.2 2300

Enter the values like that and the Router will redirect all Traffic going in/out Port 2300 to your PC at the corresponding Port.

If this doesn't work, plz let me know.
I'll try to think of something else then, but I'm positive that this should work.
