If your getting the wireless signal from someone else, which it sounds like your doing, you need to open the ports on everything in the path, and do so usually with port forwarding, rather then triggering. That would mean you need to open the ports on the following.

Modem
Router
Reciever(If you have one that has such a thing)

What guitarism says ...

It sounds like you have...

Internet -> Friends Modem -> Your router -> your PC.

You need to make sure that ports 2300-2400 are open between ALL devices.
Check firewall
Check router for port forward
Check Modem for port forward.

Also ... you forward to the next link in the chain...
e.g. forward 2300-2400 on the Modem to the Router
