Search using Google "What is my ip"
It will say at the top "Your IP address is..."
Copy this and paste it in the URL bar and press enter.
It should ask for a username and password, these can normally be found on the router.
Follow the instructions to portforward from the link others have suggested.
That would be his external ip, not his router ip.

Internal IP would just connect to yourself, why would you want to do that? External IP would connect to the router, which will allow you to change what it does if you have the password.

No.
External ip is what the internet uses to connect to you. Internal ip is what people on the same network use to connect to you. Router ip is usually the same as the internal ip except for the last number.
For example, my internal ip is fixed to 10.0.0.1. The router ip is always 10.0.0.138. Navigating to 10.0.0.138 shows up a login window which I use to login to my router config area. Putting my internal ip in would just connect to my own computer.

Really, type in your external IP into the URL bar and press enter, see what happens, it works for me.
External ip also works.
However, internal ip only works when you are on the same network.

Try 1.
Put 192.168.0.1 in the address bar. Ask your parents for the user and password. Go to "Port forward" and in the top port box, put 25565. Click the button at the bottom of the page that will say something along the lines of "Ok". It will say your settings have been saved. Go to canyouseeme.org and put in 25565. If it's open, people can connect. I suggest you op yourself and me.
Try 2. Make sure you don't have 2 routers. This flummoxed my dad for hours before he realized it.
This is my contribution. Hope it helps

Have you tried changing the port that the server uses? It sounds like something else is already using the default port.
but then i would have to forward that one and my router still doesn't seem to want to let me in very often.

Try not specifying your IP address in server.properties. That error came up when I did, then when I didn't, it didn't.
Nobody can reach the server now.

I don't have the server IP in the server.properties on it and my server is running right now, and delete the 25565 from the server port on the properties.
