Yea, also welcome to the forums and FG community!

Welcome to the forums!!

I believe that free cannot host, so regardless of being able to connect you still cannot have others connect to you. So your question 2, I believe the answer is, "you cannot."

The demo can host a demo campaign (FG comes with two examples) or you can create your own. The limit is that nothing is saved - so you'd have to create a new campaign each time you wanted to do this, because the campaign you created previously would not be saved. This is to allow basic testing/demoing between a GM and player instance ("Join Game" with the server address localhost on the same computer) just to get an idea how it all works.
