Hmmm,  looks like you are fairly screwed.  Unless you can get into your DSL
modem,  there really isn't any way for someone to get into your network,
without tunneling a connection, but if you are gonna go though all the
trouble of tunneling, you might as well put your web page on the server you
are tunneling and save both you and the other provider the extra traffic.

If you can find a way into the DSL modem.  There will probably be some sort
of setup for port forwarding.  With that, you tell the modem that when ever
someone tried to go to it on port 80 to pass along the connection to the
inside fake address of 192.168.0.x .

Try calling your DSL provider and ask them if there is anything you can do
so that you can be able to get to you machine from the outside... for
something like VNC or PC Anywhere.  That way it sounds like you only want to
be able to get to stuff for work :)
