Just checked Netgear's website. Assuming that you have a wired router, check here for instructions on how to configure Port Forwarding (model specific, don't have a netgear router, I've always preferred Linksys) model number will be either on the bottom of router, or on back of router.

Which Linksys router do you have? I have one at home, and I might be able to point you in the right direction...

Enabling the starcraft one should do it. Starcraft uses the same ports as WC3.

I could be wrong, but a port can't be BOTH TCP and UDP. Usually you have to fill out a line for each.

As an example (not knowing exactly what ports are needed for battlenet) the first line should show the following:

Battlenet ports 6112 6112 with UDP checked off, affecting the address for YOUR computer (not the address of the router), and enabled should be checked off.

I changed the picture you sent to reflect an example of what your router screen should look like.

The cool thing about Dlink is that you can put both TCP and UDP. You don't have to mess around with adding multiple lines of rules. :D

haven't tried it on my Linksys at home, not completely sure if it would allow both to be open on the same line or not. And it's not as if Linksys' documentation is very clear on that :rollie

You should be able to do a range on each line, similar to what was shown for the linksys, can't remember what the user's name was...one line for UDP, and another line for TCP, since it appears that you can't use one line for both. but again, READ the documentation from D-link (i believe that was your router's manufactorer) and double-check. If you don't understand the directions, make use of Google's Translation tool

If you are using multiple computers you need to configure it differently.
