In the router set it to forward all traffic to the router's
external address and port 22 to the correct internal address
and port 22. *How* you do it with a particular router depends
on the router. Don't know how you do it on the XH1151.

My ssh traffic gets NATted twice, once at the modem/router 
and again at the firewall.
