Greetings Quinn,
If you can enter the router setup go to the applications & gaming section. Set up port forwarding to allow incoming traffic on ports 5900, 5800, 5500 to be sent to the intranet IP of you local machine on the router.
By assigning a range you can set up different machines and address them by changing the port number IE: machine one would have a port address 5900, Machine two would have a address 5901 etc.
My router is set as follows:
Port Range Application Start End Protocol IP Address Enable to TCP UDP Both 192.168.1. to TCP UDP Both 192.168.1. to TCP UDP Both 192.168.1.
Please note this chart shows my router closed to open place a check in the enable box.
You can set what ever range you want.
Good luck.

Subject: vnc has problems with router?
Sorry, on my initial post I gave no mention of vnc in the title.
I have been trying to setup the vnc server on windows XP. I have the ip address, but for some reason connections cannot be made to the server. I am using a labtop to try and figure out what is wrong. So far, I think the problem may have to do with the router because when the labtop is connected to the router I can connect to the server and everything runs fine, but if I try to connect over the internet, thus comming from outside the router, nothing works. However, the labtop is also a server and I have been able to connect from the windows XP to the labtop over the internet. I have disabled my firewalls on the XP, but it seems to have no effect. I am using a linksys router, but I don't see why it would only allow connections in one direction. Any help would be appreciated.
