What is Port Forwarding?
http://portforward.com/help/portforwarding.htm

"Port forwarding is the redirecting of information packets sent via the internet so that they are uninhibited in reaching their intended destination. If you can allow information to flow uninhibitedly, then you will dramatically increase your downloading speeds and decrease gaming latency and lag."

You just select your router type:

Then click on the model.

Then to Games and click "N" for Neverwinter Nights 2

Then follow the instructions!
