Just got home Mark.
An IP config command tels me that I the PC is at 192.168.1.100
Should I be forwarding ports to that address rather than a different number ?

Hi Andy,
What is the ip address of your computer now? DHCP will only hand out ip
addesses in the range you specify. your computer should have recieved an
ipaddress in that range from the DHCP unless you set up a static ip on your
computer(for 140). If you want, give me a call and I can talk you thru it.
