You shouldn't need to configure anything on your router regarding the IP, since it is an outbound connection from your LAN, when you connect to it. The server will never try to connect to your router on its own, so the router will automatically route the replies from your connection attempt, to the local IP on your lan that initated the connection.
Just make sure that ports 2302-2304 are opened for outbound UDP connections, and you should be good.
Otherwise open a command prompt, and type "tracert discogc.game-host.org" and you will be able to see the IP address currently assigned to the server. Using a direct IP assignment is a bad idea though, since it can change. Thats the reason for using the logical DNS name of discogc.game-host.org

Alright, Does the Server IP change every day? >.>
I've run a trace route on that DNS u gave. Which IP should I use?
Here's a snip of the cmd window tracert.
