sounds like what you need to set up is portforwarding - and it is possible
to carry this out from the web interface.
i have the 715 and the manual is fine - you can download it from the site
at
www.solwise.co.uk - there are several parts to the manual but that is
because the SAR range is a fairly powerful router and can carry out many
advanced funtions.
if in doubt, contact a network engineer who should be able to sort this out
quickly - better to spend £40 than spend weeks struggling!
