i can't speak with much authority on this but on my set up here i first off
configure the router to patch external access to port 3050 through to
internal port 3050 on the 192.168.xx.xx machine. then connect to the
firebird server using the router ip address.

if your system is similar then you will need the ip address of the router
(it will most likely be required to configure the NAT, port pass through
stuff via a web browser).

Kind regards,
Pete
