Well either
log on to 192.168.0.1 with username :admin and password ( ****) or 1234.
Advanced --> Ports and type in the ip address of t internal machine next to DMZ.
OR
telnet 192.168.0.1 password 1234
menu # 15 and type in the ip address next to default.
regards

DMZ Setup...
First off, welcome to DSLR!
Second, menu 15 in your telnet menu of the router is where you configure your port passing. You enter the port or range that is going to pass into the two fields, and then you enter the IP address that is going to be hosting the game server.
Check out this thread for how to properly host a server that is available to the public:

First of all you want to host games for the internet, right? Because to host a game on your LAN you don't need to do anything special.
To run a game server so that people from the internet can connect to it you need to know the ports that your particular game uses. Then take that information and the IP address of the PC running the game server and, using telnet, connect to your router and go to menu 15 and enter that info there.
Do not use the Default position (DMZ) unless you absolutely have to. It is a security risk.
