Thanks for the offer of help

I work on databases and embarrassingly i don't know much about networking beyond some basic things i've tickled my way into.

Before we begin, I am using DD-WRT version 24-sp2 for my router

My server local lan address for the nic I want to use is
192.168.2.113

In my Router
The router ip address is
192.168.2.1

I have port forwarded the following
port 9000, 7778 to 192.168.2.113

I have port range forwarded the following to
Ports 7002 to 7500 to 192.168.2.113

My External Ip address for that adapter is:
173.34.35.197

Here is a copy (EDITED HEAVILY) of my server config.. minus some details like db name, users and passwords.
