If you use softsqueeze, you won't see the delay you see with using foobar2k to stream. For it to work, you have to have Java installed.
Remote streaming works great - I'm listening to music that way right now. Mnyb hit all of the points regarding remote streaming. Specifically with your Westell Internet gateway (aka router) you have from Verizon, you will also have to adjust your firewall level in addition to port forwarding. I have experience dealing with this with my father-in-law's setup. Be default, it has the firewall set to "high", which prevents outbound traffic on non-standard ports. Port 9000 for SC falls into this category. So, in addition to port-forwarding, you will have to adjust your router's firewall by either lowering the level or creating an exception for the ports SC uses. As I recall, the Westell does not support DynDNS and you can't install 3rd party software on it. This means that you will have to note your IP address each day before you go to work and hope it doesn't change during the day. You may want to investigate putting the router into bridge mode and getting a Linksys or another brand router. My setup with verizon is that I have a modem from them which I have in bridge mode and connected to a Linksys WRT-54GS. I'm not sure how easy it is to bridge the Westell all-in-one device, but you can find info about it on the Internet.
