[QUOTE="JeeCee, post: 116111, member: 11575"] Doing it manually is also possible: Go to Start (The Windows button) and search for "cmd" (without the qoutes) and run that program. In that program, typ "ipconfig" (again, without the qoutes) and hit enter. You'll see a lot of information (or not, this is different on every computer). Look for "Standard gateway". After that you'll see an IP address, which is most of the time: [CODE]192.168.1.1[/CODE] Go to your browser, and then fill in that IP and hit enter. You'll now see some kind of login screen. Fill in the login details [I]Note, the standard username and password are most of the time 'Admin' (without the qoutes).[/I] Once here, click on something that looks like "Port Forwarding". Then click on something like "open new port", "add new conenction", etc. You'll now have to fill in the details about the port you want to open. - At the port, fill in the port you want to forward. - If it asks you which kind of port you would like to forward, click on "TCP". - You can fill in what you want at the name thingie (Name it to the name of the appliction/function - when forwarding several ports this helps to not get confused). - Now you have to fill an IP address. Open up that "cmd" program again (if you closed it) and look for "IPv4-address". You'll see here another IP address which looks familiar to the standard gateway one, but look closely to the last number(s). It will look a bit like this: [CODE]192.168.1.7[/CODE] [I]Note, it changes every time you reset your router, so then you have to fill it in again to have the port opened![/I] Fill in this IP address in the "Open new Port" form. Now click on "Add port", "Open connection", etc. Congratulations! You've successfully opened 1 port! [I]Note: repeat this if you want to open other ports[/I] [/QUOTE]
