Okay, so you have a security issue.

I don't understand that last sentence... what is 'network connects'?

You shouldn't need to do that: that's for forwarding between the
internet and the local hosts.  Your router should have a port that is
designed to be plugged into a cable or dsl modem, and then ports that
are for your local network.  Port forwarding is so that systems that
come from the 'internet' connection get forwarded to local machines --
local traffic shouldn't be touched by it.

Right, which is the real problem.  Try WPA/TKIP -- the WPA2/AES seems
to have lots of issues for some people.

Also make sure your keys match exactly -- spaces count, use the 'Play'
button on the remote to delete characters, don't just space over typos.
