Default Couple Apex questions....

1) I'm on Telus but have the dyndns stuff all setup and functioning properly. My issue right now is port forwarding with my Apple Airport Extreme. I am not very network savvy. I've got my connection from my Telus router going into it. Do I need to setup port forwarding on the Telus or Apple devices? I tried on the Apple but I'm not convinced I'm doing the right things or if it's better to do on the other router.

2) I'd like my Apex to text me not email me. This is news to me but apparently the cell carriers support email -> txt. I found the one for me (rogers): yournumber@pcs.rogers.com and tried sending a test email. Sure enough I get a text msg but can't see it until I "subscribe" which in Rogers talk means pay out the rear end. Does anyone know of a service that is not carrier dependant and is free? I know gmail supports filters so you can have certain messages auto-texted to you but I'd rather not go setup a gmail account if I can avoid it.

Thanks!
