[Guide] How to portforward (+PICS)

[JordanSel]

Welcome to this tutorial, I will be showing you how to portforward on your routers admin control panel.

----------------------------------
STEP ONE
----------------------------------

1) Right the first step is to click on your start button.
2) Then click 'All Programs' and then click 'Accessories' then click 'Command Prompt' or just search 'Command Prompt'

Heres a picture if you are unsure!


----------------------------------
STEP TWO
----------------------------------

1) Click 'Command Prompt', then type 'ipconfig' then get the numbers that I have highlited.



----------------------------------
STEP THREE
----------------------------------

1) Then insert that into your internet browser, like this.



----------------------------------
STEP FOUR
----------------------------------

1) Login to your router, default usually is 'admin' and 'password' or Virgin Media is 'virgin'



----------------------------------
STEP FIVE
----------------------------------

Go to the 'Advanced' tab and you should see a link called 'Port Forwarding / Port Triggering' or different on a different control panel.

----------------------------------
STEP SIX
----------------------------------

1) Click 'Add Custom Service'.
2) Put in a name for it..
3) Then insert your ports.
4) Then for the 'Server IP Address'
5) Like for me I would put a .4 at the end, and you would put what it says for yours.


Now you have successfully portforward'd your Retro or anything you have been trying to do!

No 2 routers are the same. But it would be the same concept. Thanks for this.
