Okay,so, my questions are:
1. Can I set up a server with a Wireless USB Modem ?
2. What about the local IP
3. How should I forward my ports ( considering it's a modem )
4. What could be the problems of un-hosting my server, while I permitted acces to both, announce.exe and vcmp-svr.exe ?

Here are the answers to your questions:
1: I think you can. I have a USB Modem and was able to host my server. Atleast until the modem doesn't let me host it anymore. But I will say, depends.
2: What local IP? If your meaning localhost:port/127.0.0.1:port, than it will only show to your self. It will never appear in an internet list for anyone. Just add it to your favourites list.
3: Famous question. Here is Storm's Tutorial (http://forum.vicecitymultiplayer.com/index.php?topic=2770.0). But if your meaning modem instead of router, I once found a side saying that Modem doesn't need any port forwarding. :D
4: Sorry.. Don't understand. :-\
HOPE IT HELPS..

Modems do not require port forwarding, routers do.
