Sounds like you probably either have your PC downstairs set as a DMZ or you have port forwarding set on your router for port 5998. You do NOT want to use port forwarding for port 5998. There is no need to forward that port if you are only wanting to play and doing so will stop return traffic from coming back to the other PC which that port is not forwarded to.

Verify your router config and remove any port forwarding or DMZ settings you might have that use the EQEmu port ranges.
