Maybe you can request or even buy a public IP from your ISP. Request your
ISP to allow all incoming requests for that public IP directly through the
router or ask them to NAT the public IP to your Private IP. If your private
IP is dynamic there are lots of work around solutions. You can increase the
lease period to forever, or NAT by DNS(You will need to register your
computer name in the ISP's DNS) and I am sure your ISP will be able to
provide a couple more solutions.
Hope this helps.
