Martian most likely has the best knowledge of the board on this matter, I would listen to him on this. I've been in a house where my roommate decided to do the same thing you want to do. Our security was NOT up to the challenge of hosting a web server out of a trailer in the middle of the boonies. This guy in Brazil made out life a living hell for over 3 months till I got someone to come in and setup a PC to act as a firewall for our servers. He knew his shit (he works for Redhat's HQ here in NC now) and told us it was a bad idea to hook a local IP at our house.

You can ignore all of my above post if you like, I just need to restate that this is dangerous on a digital level.
Call your ISP and get a fixed IP and the largest bandwidth package they have. You need alot of upload speed in order to do this.
Get a cheap Watchguard Firebox and configure that for your network. That will help alot with traffic and help keep your house secure from the shit ton of people on the net that want to know what is on your computers. If you are willing to put money into this, buy one of those. Check ebay for them, brand new some of them are only a few hundred dollars. Also, get a good UPS, you don't want your shit crashing and having mass amounts of downtime because you got a power surge.
You most likely are not going to find one page with all the info you need on this, you will have to go step by step and look up each of those steps one at a time.
