There isn't enough detail in your question, so select from the cases below.
Warning: unless you are using proper wireless encryption (WPA not WEP) with a decent password, you are asking for trouble. Check out the
Security Now! podcast for advice on how to do this properly, and use a password from the
Perfect Passwords Page
Case 1: Two different PCs, one on wireless (laptop), one using ethernet (server).
Give both machines a fixed IP, say 192.168.1.10 for the laptop and 192.168.1.200 for the server.
In the router, map ports ports 51001 TCP and 52002 UDP to 192.168.1.10
map ports ports 51005 TCP and 52006 UDP to 192.168.1.200
Set up eMule on the laptop with ports 51001/52002 and the server with ports 51005/52006
Both eMules should have a high id.
Case 2: one pc (laptop), in two different locations, such as den (ethernet) and bedroom (wireless)
Try giving the laptop the same fixed IP address for both wireless and ethernet connections (you do this on the pc). Not all routers will understand this, because some routers use different IP ranges for ethernet and wireless connections. Remember that if you use both connections at once you'll get an IP conflict error. But with a fixed IP address (say 192.168.1.10) then you can map ports ports 51001 TCP and 52002 UDP to 192.168.1.10 and the router will always be able to send the traffic to your pc.
If that doesn't work, give your ethernet connection the 192.168.1.10 address, and the wireless connection the 192.168.1.200 address, and configure the router as shown above. Then you'll have to change the port numbers on eMule depending on what connection you are using. This can be a hassle, but at least it will work.
If you don't want to reconfigure eMule every time, then you could sign up to a third party VPN service like SwissVPN or ItsHidden, which will give you added privacy, and allow you to configure eMule only once. The cost is in the $7 to $10 range per month, and you can map a few ports to your pc. This will allow you to use eMule on any wireless hotspot as well.
Hope this helps!
So We’re In Agreement Maxim: If you’re happy with your security, so are the bad guys.

For a Secure VPN option (instead of an insecure proxy), try ItsHidden ($10/mo). And check out PeerBlock for extra (free) protection against the bad guys.
I will donate EUR100 to the first version/mod of eMule that can successfully stop a poisoning attack, and allow me to block/distrust/ignore users from sending me stuff, and allow me to block/prevent them from receiving stuff, and not permit users to take or send partial chunks of data.
Until this happens,
or until the corruption handling works correctly, please add the following to your IP Filter (ipfilter.dat):

92.192.0.0 - 92.223.255.255 , 0 , Poison, QSC AG
78.48.0.0 - 78.50.159.255 , 0 , Poison, HanseNet Telekommunikation GmbH
With apologies to the
legitimate users of these ISPs who are being unfairly tarred with the same brush as the bad guys.
