Is there a port forwarding for dummies site I can try? |
Setting up Port Forwarding on these routers is easy as Pie....eating not making.
1) First give your server PC a static IP.
2) Then navigate to your router's IP usually 192.168.1.1 And go to the router settings.
3) Then set the port to the PC (using the IP address from step 1) you want to forward the port information to.
Another way is to set the DMZ to the static IP, but this is more dangerous because it allows all the ports on that PC to be accessed.
