Our old cable modem could easily be set up to forward an "incoming port request" to the RealVNC software. Allowing us to log into our home computer from any location.

We don't see any such configuration possiblity with our new AT&T DSL 2Wire 2701HG-B modem.

(And it appears to have 2 entirely different 'set up screens'. Why?)

Where is the screen that allows "forward incoming request for a certain port", to a certain computer, and direct it towards RealVNC"?
