Forwarding your port...... Stickys dont HELP!!

from Sins Forums
ok, a few weeks ago i fixed my hosting problems by port forwarding, but now we have changed net providers. Now i need to do it again, but i have forgotten how to do it. I have surfed the forums, looking at posts and stickies alike. they dont help me . most say 'you have to forward 6112 to your ip port' but dont tell you how. its quite annoying. can somone link me to where it DOES tell you HOW to do it.

I live in Australia, and have a telstra bigpond router (the white box that plugs go into lol) and its not on that page. could you help me? Last time, some guy in the lobby told me to type in 192.168.****** (dont know the whole number) in my web browser, and after that a thing popped up saying 'admin' and 'password'. i know what to do from there, but i dont know how to get it again. my ip adress USED to be 192.168.***** but its now been changed to 10.0.*.*, which is different, coz it no longer starts with 192. does it still work? help?

you could go to 10.0.x.x and see if admin and password pops up. Or see if there is a reset button somewhere on the router to reset back to 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1

Found this about your router. http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies-archive.cfm/791894.html
I myself have no idea how this router works so this is far as I can help..

i have tried typing in 10.0.X.X but it doesnt work, and i dont think i can reset it..... although i am on this page right now, and apparently i can change my ip back to 192.168.0.1, but it says 'If you change the IP address range, you must renew the DHCP lease on all devices on the network.'

i dont know what that is, but i dont want to stuff it up, so i cant change it back. here is the page;
