Hi Jerry,

I looked at your IP to see what kind of router you had.
It appears to be supplied by your ISP, because telnet showed:

Sawtooth Technologies, LLC  Stevenson, WA    Unauthorized Access is Prohibited
gw-sawtooth.pdx.rain.net       98.10.20-0    For Service Call  +1 509 427-4865
Sawtooth Technologies Ether 204.119.0.254    PL/DHGL/109201/ELG   204.119.4.30

So you may need to call them to get the password or to forward port 22
for you.
