ok you will have to set up port forwarding if you got a manual with your router this will some in very handy at this point. Also in the games booklet that shoudl tell you whihc ports it needs open but you can google it too and probably get it for example world of warcraft http://www.portforward.com/cportsnotes/battlenet/wow.htm

this should fix your issues.
