Problems hosting *craft games

So I am trying to host some, primarily, Warcraft 3 games. There are a few computers + Xbox connected to a router, which is connected to a modem. All ports are forwarded as correctly as possible, and directly connecting to the modem allows us to host.

I am using a netgear rotuer, and would preferably like all 3 computers to be able to host. Any obvious things I'm forgetting? I think it has something to do with... the ports are open, but it doesn't know WHOSE ports are open... or where to send the request to... something like that. I'm not totally sure.

    Ports being open isn't going to solve it, you need to forward the ports to the PC that's hosting the game.
