How To Port-Forward With a Linksys Router (WinXP Vers 1.2)

1.) Find your "Gateway" Ip. This can be done many ways, in this guide I was describe one.

2.) Start > Run > Type "CMD" (without qoutes) and hit enter > Command prompt will come up (black screen)>Type "ipconfig" (without qoutes) and hit enter.

3.) Now open up Internet Explorer (IE for short) and in the address bar
type your gateway IP.



4.) Hit enter and you should get a password prompt.



5.) Now depending on who has messed with your router before there is a
default password. Many including the most common "admin" or "admn" if
you try either and no luck, then reset your router. There is a small button
on the back that says "RESET", press and hold for 45 seconds.

6.) Now you should be at the "Setup" page, Depending on the
firmware version your page my look different from mine.

after step 6 there is pic on about linksys what are these a program? is linksys a port-forward or firewall program????

[ilw]

linksys is the brand of router, each router manufacturer uses their own brand of firmware (software installed in the router) so your router will display a different looking page.

Do you have a guide for the Speedtouch 510 router?

[Wizard_Mon1]

Quick question, do you think that port forwarding would work for a uni firewall and do you think they would be able to find out or that they would care.

I don't want to fuck with it if they won't like it and they can find out.

I would be grateful for any help as at the moment on this comp i can only use klite which is not so good.

[tempochan]

[Wolfmight]

none of the imgs seem to work for me.

[trixr4kiddz]

can someone help me?
do i check TCP or UDP?
and for my IP address do i leave the 0 at the end or put the real number of my ip address on there?

[ilw]

TCP is more common for file sharing programs & put in your real network ip address.
