Ok here is where I am at, I can work the RA on the portal on my mac and on my iPhone
but if i go about 100 feet from my house it doesnt work...i know i need to forward a port...how do i know what the port number is to forward...i know how to access my router online but i dont understand what the ip addresses are or where to look it up.... on the portal it gives me a connection address but if i try to forward that it doesnt work , starts with 75.95

Basically, you need to forward a specific port from your external IP (75.95.whatever.whatever) to the appropriate IP on your internal network (probably 192.168.something.something, but could be 10.blah.blah.blah). This way, when an outside connection comes to your public IP, your router will send the request to the RA unit.

It seems that the port on the RA is typically 2000.
So, using your router, you can forward connections from your external IP (75.95.blah.blah), on whatever port you wish, to the RA internal IP on port 2000. "whatever port you wish" is the port number you'll then need to access things from outside your home network. You'll connect to your 75.95.blah.blah IP on port "whatever port you wish".

For example, let's assume the following:
External IP: 75.95.55.55 (IP address of your cable/DSL/Fios modem)
External Port: 3847 (I just picked this randomly. You should probably pick one between 1025 and 10000 or so.)
Internal IP: 192.168.1.104 (RA IP address. Looks like the Wifi Utility will tell you this address, according to the manual.)
Internal Port: 2000 (seems this is the default)

I would then forward connections FROM 75.95.55.55 port 3847 TO 192.168.1.104 port 2000.

Hope this helps. :-/
