hello im tring to do a live web show from my home computer i downloaded
somting called broawave and broadcam but in order for me to make it public it
says the following.

The procedure for configuring your server to open its ports depends on
whether you are running a firewall and/or router on your network. See below
for more details. You must refer to the individual programs to find out which
port numbers need to be opened, and whether they need to be opened for TCP
and/or UDP traffic.

Firewalls If you have a firewall then you must open the relevant ports on
your firewall for TCP and/or UDP data. Refer to the documentation of your
firewall for how to do this.
Routing If your computer connects to the Internet directly (without a
router) then you do not need to worry about this.
If it is on a private network behind a router (or modem which works as a
router), you will need to set your router to forward traffic from a
particular port on the router (i.e. the public port) to the port on the
server computer (i.e. the private port). By convention most people use the
same port numbers but you should be aware there is no problem with the ports
being different. For example if you set the public port on 'mydomain:1234' to
be redirected to 'mycomputer:567', then everyone on the Internet can access
via 'mydomain:1234'.

i have a belkin wireless router and a modem and i dont understand how to do
this could some one please help.

The Windows Firewall is a service, and can be accessed from services.msc.
Your belkin is your 'default gateway' address and is accessed in the
browser.
If you open a command prompt, and type 'ipconfig', you get the gateway
address. use it like this, for example:
http://192.168.1.1
