I just wish playing around with Apache would be easier. Yea I need to read up on it more, I’m not a networking expert.

Then E61 should update a dyndns account, so you type the dyndns address on your PC. When the E61 is in your WLAN, then you can use the LAN IP. Something wrong? "This application pings a gateway server to establish a solid, hopefully encrypted, IP connection,..." a device does not have to ping anything to establish a connection in a network. There are services running that allows establishing a connection to it (the E61 in this case).

That's how it works in SIP land anyway. There are other “nat traversal” techniques that could be used here to determine if the phone and the computer are behind the same NAT.
