First off, you need to find out if your cable internet provider allows you to run a server. Many will either block the port needed to run a webserver or WORSE disconnect you for violating your TOS. After that, you need to make sure you have a STATIC IP address. Most cable internet providers are semi-stable in that they stay for a few months but are NOT static. Personally, I would go with some inexpensive hosting plan, that tends to be much easier.
Office live gives you free domain registration for a year, with free hosting (no time limit mentioned). Details found here. This to me seems like a more hassle free option.
