You said you have the router set?   What does that mean?

In order to be working properly you need to have:

1. Established a static IP address on the computer you wanna play with
2. Forwarded Port 6112 to the static IP address you setup
3. Lowered any firewall on your local machine (allow starcraft, and 
allow port 6112 UDP)
