Wrong section. There is a special section for computer related hardware. Anyways you should also learn to search. But lucky for you I'll be helpful.

First you need to log into the router. In order to do this you need to go into a web browser like IE, FireFox or anything else. Next input 192.168.1.1 into the address bar.

Then I'll ask for a user name. By default it should be either admin or nothing at all. Then for a pass word its either admin or password.

You can also look on the router it self for the default pass word and username. Then once you log in you just need to go to the portforwarding section. It's named different in each router but generally the words port or gaming is in the title. There you can forward the ports to the computer you want.

Note: if anyone posts negative crap here I'll infract you!

NoPeace - out

Re: sage

username1, seriously now, I used to think you were alright but now your just taking things too far and flaming EVERYBODY who makes a thread. Just cool it.

Honestly, Username1 was just stating the obvious. That guy clearly did absolutely NOTHING to help himself and just wants people to do all the work for him.

Anyway, PortForward.com - Free Help Setting up Your Router or Firewall should be able to help you forward any ports you need.

Yea I agree with Rish.
Honestly if he would of even looked at PortForward he would of seen that he can just click a few links and its done...

Shows you which game needs what ports, programs need what ports, what to do to login to your router... If you can't figure out at least part way how to do it then come ask a question, don't just ask a question immediately and hope for someone to show you step by step.
