You will love Slingbox! I use it all the time when working overseas.
Now that you are getting it hooked up, you need to figure out how to record the programs so you can watch them when you want to!

... in a DOS box/command prompt will tell you the IP of your PC not the public/outside IP of the router. (and I'm pretty sure it's -n, not -m)
On the router the easiest way would be to web to any number of sites like the one suggested above that can tell you the public IP that you're coming from. That public IP should be the IP of your router. The more complex method would be to web into your router and browse through the menus. Somewhere in there it'll tell you what IP it has.

You should sign up for no-ip.com or dyndns.com.
Most home routers have an automatic update built in for these functions. Accounts are free.

You can get your public (external, on the intarweb) IP by going to http://checkip.dyndns.org while connected thru your home connection. If you need to know what it is when you aren't home, or want to be able to have your domain, you can get a free subdomain from dyndns.org and just use that wherever. Most home routers have a dyndns client built into them.
