Hi!

I'm having trouble forwarding ports and/or turning on the DMZ to my airport. The airport itself is controlled by my fathers Macintosh as I myself am using a PC (ok, so shoot me! :p ).

I've changed my internal IP-address and enabled that address as default host but here's where the problems really start. As soon as I've changed my IP-address my Internet connection stops working.

Also, when I try to port forward nothing happens.

I know this is probably really basic but i'm kinda clueless when it comes to computers so if ANYONE would find it in their heart to write a simple (but specific) "do this, do that"-guide that would help me then please do!!! :)

Thanks in advance
