Well im using WIndows XP SP2 and i have AVAST as anti-virus protection and im on a Linksys Router Module : BEFSR81 connected with 5 PC'z and i want to host games on WarcraftIII TFT'z battlenet but unfortunately i can't..
Well the thing ive tried after i read a bunch of threads in this forum... is to close avast and shutdown my WinXP firewall and the results were i could host a game and it appeared in the custom games list but everybody that clicked on my game freezed for like 1 minute and couldn't join which means i failed 
I've tried portforwarding but i wasn't able to cause i don't know how to portforward..and www.portforward.com isn't practicle for me.. cause it doesn't have a manual for Linksys module BEFSR891...
Well thats all and i would really appreciate it if somebody could be kind enough to help me

I'm not very familiar with the interface for that perticular router.
Try looking on Linksys's support site for more info...or If you are able to find the tab on your routers configuration page for opening ports, post the required fields, or post a screenshot and I will tell you how to fill it out.

It does have a manual
To setup port forwarding on this router your computer needs to have a static ip address. Take a look at our Static IP Address guide to setup a static ip address. When you are finished setting up a static ip address, please come back to this page and enter the ip address you setup in the Static IP Address box below.
Do not skip this step!
Please enter the static ip you want to forward to:
192.168.1
Open a web browser like internet explorer or Netscape.

Enter the ip address of your router in the address bar of your browser. In the picture above the address bar has http://www.google.com in it. Just replace all of that with the ip address of your router. By default the ip address should be set to 192.168.1.1.

You should see a box prompting you for your username and password. Enter your username and password now. By default the username is blank, and the password is admin. Click the Ok button to log in to your router.

In the upper right of this menu you will see an orange Advanced button. Clicking this button will cause the menu options at the top of your screen to change. Go ahead and click it now.

You should now be on the Filters tab at the top of your screen. If you look close to the bottom of this page, you will see a Block Wan Request radio button. This button needs to be set to disabled. Click the Apply button to save the changes you made on this page.
Now click the Forwarding button at the top of the page.

Customized Applications: WarcraftIII
Ext Port: 6112 - 6119
Protocol TCP: Check
Protocol UDP: Check
IP Address: 192.168.1.___
Enable: Check
We will list a series of lines here that will show you exactly how to forward the ports you need to forward. Warcraft III requires you to forward the 6112-6119 ports. Go ahead and enter the settings shown above into the port range forwarding menu.
Click Apply at the bottom of your screen to save your changes.
Thats it You're done!
