Recommended Posts

Many guide ask you to use websites like www.portforward.com, but you don't need to for Linksys! It's just a waste of time when you can port forward right through the Linksys website! Follow these steps and you can port forward your game with Linksys.

1\. Open Command Prompt
  (For Windows XP, Click on Run Then Type in Command)
  (For Windows Vista, Type in Command In Search)
2\. Type in 'ipconfig' (no quotes) and look for two IP addresses:
  - Default Gateway (Looks Like: xxx.xxx.x.x)
  - IPv4 Address (Looks like: xxx.xxx.x.xxx)
3\. Type in that number on your internet browser
  - Internet Explorer
  - FireFox
  - Etc.
4\. Enter and you will be asked for a username and password.
5\. If you didn't change anything, the username is admin and the password is admin
  (If you did change something, click on the down arrow and click on any of the choices and type in admin for the password. If it doesn't work I can't help.)
6\. Once you enter you will see the Linksys page.
7\. Click on 'Applications & Gaming'
8\. Leave the 'Application' space blank
9\. Open your 'Server' folder and click on 'Data'. Enter the port number you see there.
  (Default Is 4000)
10\. For 'Protocol' use any type.
  (Default is TCP)
11\. For 'IP Address' enter the last three digits of the IPv4 Address.
  (Looks like xxx.xxx.x.xxx)
12\. Check 'Enable'
13\. Click 'Save Settings'
14\. Your game will be port forwarded and will work.
  (If it does not work, try restarting your computer)
I hope this guide helps you!
