Even with the presence of tons of tutorials, a lot of users still struggle when It comes to correctly forward their ports...A solution: Simple Port Forwarding.
Simple Port Forwarding is a freeware (made by PcWinTech) that makes the process a lot easier. It offers a large choice of router brands and you can still contact the developer if yours is not listed.
Steps:
1. Setting up
- You may begin by choosing your router: by marking your default IP router gateway (in most of the cases, the default don't need modifications).
- You may also mark your username and pass, if used to access your router. Although, most of the routers come with a default settings at least for the username (admin, generally), you can see a default pass list here (http://www.phenoelit-us.org/dpl/dpl.html) if you're not sure.
