I've been messing around with my firewall trying to get myself able to host. I have a wireless Netgear router. I have tried to configure port forwarding on 3453 but I have to assign a specific static host ip (while my ip is dynamic and always changing) and even when I do that I have found it is only allowing one person to join me game. Anyone else have this problem?

No, that's weird.
You could shut off DHCP and configure a static IP address inside your LAN, but that shouldn't solve the only one player at a time thing, that's weird. I usually find its an all or nothing thing, either nobody can see me or everyone can.
