If you are behind a router you have use port forwarding for the specific ports BF uses on the router to allow your game to connect to the internet.

Battlefield 1942 uses the following port(s): 14567 (UDP) Only required port If you want your server to be listed on Gamespy: 14690 (UDP) 22000 (UDP) (only for LAN games) 23000-23009 (UDP) 27900 (UDP) (Gamespy Master Server UDP Heartbeat) 28900 (TCP) (Gamespy Master Server List Request)
