How many channels can your router handle at once?

Sounds like the ports are blocked.  On the router interface, look for port forwarding.  Forward ports 5190 - 5193 to your local ip address.  You might be able to find a list of connected devices on the router interface.  That'll list your IP.

Yeah, that should do it.

Try turning on Network Address Translation too (NAT).
