Your setup is perfect, but its reliability comes down to the quality of the router. Nowadays these are quite throwaway devices, and if you can, you should have a second one setup with the nat port forwarding settings pre configured to swap out in the event of an issue. Documentation on the setup is a must also for continuity of service in an outage. HTH.
