Okay, to clairfy a few points for ya. Your routers IP as the rest of the world sees it is:

81.146.46.75

Now, your router also needs an IP address on your LAN side of the router and, for you, that is:

192.168.241.101

To keep things simplistic, think of your router as a wall with an airlock that has two doors, the outer one labeled 81.146.46.75 and the inner is 192.168.241.101.

Any info coming INTO your LAN has to reference the 81.146.46.75 IP while everything going OUT of your LAN needs to use 192.168.241.101 as its gateway.

From a DOS prompt, enter IPCONFIG
You should get something like this:

Code:
 
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.
 
C:\>ipconfig
Windows IP Configuration

Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
        Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :
        IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.10
        Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
        Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1
C:\>
This tells me that my COMPUTER's IP address is 192.168.1.10 and that the gateway (aka routers LAN side IP) is 192.168.1.1


For a EQEmu server that wants people to be able to connect from outside your LAN, then try these xml settings, replacing YOUR_COMPUTERS_IP_ADDRESS_HERE with the actual IP of the server machine (not the routers LAN IP).

Code:
 
<!-- Only specify these two if you really think you need to. -->
<address>81.146.63.111</address>
<localaddress>YOUR_COMPUTERS_IP_ADDRESS_HERE</localaddress>

....

<database>
<host>YOUR_COMPUTERS_IP_ADDRESS_HERE</host>
