Routing connections to my Snap m4100

As the title says, I have a Snap m4100 server. It's currently configured as a NAS, but also has the ability to be a web server. I previously set up my website, and I know it works. The problem is, the connections were being routed by my dad's (I'm 15) firewall, which was a physical box with a noisy fan, not a software. We got rid of the firewall because it was too loud, and now my Snap server is local. I have a domain name set up, but the question is, how to I route external connections from port 80 to my Snap's local ip address (ie. 192.168...)?

Is there some software I can run? Or maybe some settings for my router? I want to try to avoid buying some hardware, especially if it comes with a loud fan

Oh, my router is Linksys WRT54GS Wireless-G Broadband Router with SpeedBooster. Thanks in advance!

Edit: Uh oh, I just realized this should be in the routing section. My apologies. Can someone move it? An answer would also be appreciated
