First off, you will have to open ports 6112 up to 6119 TCP and UDP in the router settings. Those ports are needed in order to be able to play on Battle.net. Ports are used to send data to and receive data from Battle.net. If they are blocked, which, by default, is the case, you may get into trouble.
UDP and TCP are the protocols used to transfer the data packets.
After you've opened ports 6112 to 6119 TCP/UDP, forward port 6112 to your first computer's IP address and port 6113 to the second PC's IP address.
Then, on the second computer (the one that uses port 6113), click Start, Run..., type regedit into the dialog box and hit the Enter key.
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Battle.net\Configuration, right-click your mouse, select New and create a new DWORD value. Call it "Game Data Port" (without the quotation marks). Then right-click the newly added Game Data Port, click Edit, select Decimal and enter 6113 as value. Then close the registry, run StarCraft and see if both PCs are able to connect.
Note: You may experience a lot of latency afterwards, but you should be able to connect at least. The latency is a known issue to Blizzard.
