    you need access to the advanced mode of the modem, however you will need an additional username/password for access to that section. Ironically I'm also looking for those details, as I want to setup a few port forwarding rules for some wifi cctv cameras.

    From the sticky:

    To change any setting on the modem, you need to log on to it. In a web browser, enter 192.168.1.1 which will bring you to the log on page. Leave the username and password blank. Press OK (not Cancel) to log on. Most of the settings you will want to change are under the Advanced tab.

    If you're only running a minecraft server on a local network (as in, just between home computers, and not the internet) then there should be no need to open any ports.

    However:
