BF2 doesn't require port forwarding. Also check to make sure your firewall on your computer isn't set too high. I have my Linksys router set to DHCP because I have other computers on my network, but if you don't then I do suggest static IP.

You shouldn't need a VPN, but it might help.

What router do you use? I've got a Netgear WGT624 v2 with a WG311T wireless card. I've never had any dramas connecting (apart from the "there is a problem with your connection" in game - ugh!). You might try upgrading your firmware...

BF2 requires NO portforwarding what so ever, just make sure your perconal firewall software is not set at maximum cause it might not let outgoing traffic.
