Salutations minors,

(Antminer S2/cgminer question)
Recently I received my Antminer S2 (1TH-Batch4) and connected it up to the NiceHash mining pool. The results are interesting and better than most pools in my opinion. NiceHash has commands to tell your device to accept or exclude certain orders by the parameters you set, through cgminer. I've only been using the Mining Configuration inside the GUI interface (web-browser) to configure the pool settings. Can I use the cgminer program to program the settings with my Antminer S2? Will it auto detect the device when loading or will I be telling it to target the Antminers default (192.168.1.99) IP from my laptop? Will I need a spare desktop to help run the cgminer while I use my laptop at work? I think I can load files to the Antminer S2, but I've only seen firmware files released for its Linux OS inside.

(Basic remote access/port forwarding question-Me: Win7 x64 - Frontier - MI424WR-GEN3I router)
 My other question is about communicating with the Antminer S2 while outside my home network. Just through web-browser for now, if possible. I configured my router to allow remote access and can log into it currently while I'm at work as I write this. But I cannot access the Antminers interface. I can see my connection and the Antminers host name I gave it with still the default IP. Does anyone know what settings (Port Forwarding ?) to enable to have it allow me access the Antminers interface? Theres a list of programmable settings to assign rules for it and goes as follows; Custom Ports, Show All Services, FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, IMAP, LT2P, LT2P Triggering, Ping, POP3, SMTP, SNMP, Telnet, TFTP, TFTP triggering, Traceroute, and Voicewing.

Applied rules so far in router:
127.0.0.1 - Frontier service.
192.168.1.2:XXXX - Bitcoin v0.9.1.0-beta - TCP Any -> XXXX (I can see that this is the mining going currently on).

Thank you for reading and your time in responding to my inquiries. Good luck mining.
