possibily hardest part. read carefully.
-your router needs have port 6112 tcp forwarded

find router in list , click warcraft this. please note guide forward ports 6112-6119 - not needed. follow steps , forward port 6112 tcp.
-you need allow warcraft through os x firewall
i'm not on mac atm, shouldn't hard sort out. disable firewall (allow incoming connections) firewall doesn't work warcraft.
-you need make sure warcraft set use port 6112
launch warcraft , go options->gameplay. check game port 6112, if not, adjust is.
can't go more depth i'm @ work. if need more help, feel free ask (possibily post routers model number).
