As some may remember, I've had server troubles in the past, but I'm hoping this will be different.

EDIT: Okay, my ISP refuses to play clean. I have drawn this diagram to show you how f*cked up it is.

My grandma and I have the same provider. Using NAT or someshit, I have no idea, they managed to give my grandma the same IP as myself. I don't know if there is some way to still make my server work with this unholy configuration, but if there is please tell me.

It's down.

ffffffffffffff-

What are the IP's? Some 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x ?

You are technically in a network(and if you have a router at home, that makes it a network in a network).
ISP is too cheap to buy IPs.
You need to find a way to connect to the router, and make it port forward.
If you have a home router, you need to find out it's IP.
Basically, it's like the standard connection but the router is yours, or this ungodly setup shown below:
Internet.
x.x.x.x
ISP Router
y.y.y.y
Inside of streets and stuff.
z.z.z.z
Home Router
a.a.a.a
Cables in your house.
b.b.b.b
Your PC

Well, how would I discover the ip of their router? Default gateway just lists my router.

Connect to your router and look around in it's control/info panel.
Telneting and using ifconfig might work.

This may be a bit of late help, but next time you see me on one of the D3 servers, I'll probably be free to help you with this.
