Its simple:

1. Fill in your global IP in config.lua. (Can be found on What Is My IP Address? - IP Address Lookup, Internet Speed Test, IP Info, plus more)
2. Forward ports 7171 and 7172 on your router. (Instructions can be found on PortForward.com - Free Help Setting up Your Router or Firewall)
3. If you have a software firewall, open said ports there too, or allow the TheForgottenServer.exe proper access to the internet.

Done.
