Counter-Strike and Half-Life

Well, i installed my router MN-100 recently and hooked up
two computers just fine.
But, when i try to get a dedicated server going on
counter-strike or half-life it dont work because it makes
it available only on lan.
Im not sure why but i did notice that i have lan ip's and
my friend could not connect to the server but i could...


Is there anyway to get one of my computers a regular ip
address without removing the router so i can host a
dedicated server.

Ryan, the problem is you're not forwarding the port from your "public" IP
(as provided by your ISP and handled by the MN-100) to your internal (LAN)
IP. Take a look at this Knowledge Base article (different games, but same
theory) and remember you need to identify which LAN computer IP the game
resides on in the forwarding:
