You have to login to your router assuming that you're using one to connect to the internet and forward the specific port to your local IP. I'd suggest you set yourself to a static local IP incase you ever want to do it again. Hosting a server on a home connection isn't such a great idea and you should either colocate a box at a datacenter on rent one from an established provider.
