Two possible options:
1) Portforward your modem/router 25565 is the standard port you'll need to use. Visit
http://portforward.com/ and follow the instructions for help.
2) You can host a server using hamachi, however, anyone whom wishes to use your server will have to be connected to your hamachi network.

(You're better off using step One, its much easier)

If it's just a modem all your ports should be open, although firewalls sometimes block incoming/outcoming on certain ports so you should check your antivirus/windows settings.
