Generally, the router is at fault. You have to open up the port that you are using such as 6112 on the router. Most routers you have to do that through the virtual servers option so you also need to input the IP address of the computer in the network.

Disable the Windows Firewall, it always blocks WC3 whether it's Vista, xp, etc.
