reIm behind the standard modem that comes with verizon. it has an ip adress then each pc on the network as an ip address of 192.168.1.xx. im using no-ip.com for a dns. what ip address does the client use, my modem ip doesnt work. thanks

Is the client external to your modem? Is the server internal to your modem? Does it have a static IP from the modem/router? If the client is external have you forwarded the ports for the server from the modem’s IP to the server’s internal IP?

how do i forward the ports from the modem to the server

I cannot give you specific on that without knowing the specific make and model of your dsl modem. I can then lookup the directions.
