Setting up a private feed is easy. BUT confusing at first.
You need to set up port forwarding on your modem for the port(s) you will be using.
You will need one port for audio, and another for text tags or remote control if you want either of those.
You can Google how to do port forwarding for you modem. A sample for my modem is in the link below.
THEN, allow those port(s) through your firewall.
You can refer to my older post here for some help.

In my case, I use ScannerCast for the audio and the FreeSCAN server for remote control.
And RemoteFS on my Android phone.
Since you can only use one program on your radio's port at a time, you either can send text tags OR setup for remote control.
But NOT both at the same time.
Then, since most people don't have static IP addresses and their IP address may change randomly from time to time:
Use something like no-ip.org to get your own host name that will not change when your IP address changes.
Free Dynamic DNS - Managed DNS - Managed Email - Domain Registration - No-IP
Then, you would access your feed using something like this:
http://myfeed.no-ip.org:12345
(replace 'myfeed' with your host name and the 12345 with the port number you set up for the audio)

Setup the port for ScannerCast:
Start FreeSCAN and then start the FreeSCAN server for remote control:
Port 1300 is the default. You can leave at that or change it if you have reason to.
