Port Forwarding for the Huawei SmartAX MT882

What is Port Forwarding?
What is Port Triggering?

To setup port forwarding on this router your computer needs to have a static ip address. Take a look at our Static IP Address guide to setup a static ip address. When you are finished setting up a static ip address, please come back to this page and enter the ip address you setup in the Static IP Address box below.

Do not skip this step!

Please enter the static ip you want to forward to:

192.168.1.1

Open a web browser like internet explorer or Netscape. Enter the ip address of your router in the address bar of your browser. In the picture above the address bar has http://www.google.com in it. Just replace all of that with the ip address of your router. By default the ip address should be set to 192.168.1.1.

You should see a box prompting you for your username and password. Enter your username and password now. By default both the username and password are admin. Click the Ok button to log in to your router.

Click the Advanced link near the left side of the page.

You should now see a new menu. In this new menu, click Virtual Server.

Put a dot into the Enabled radio button. Enter the name of the program into the Name box. It doesn't really matter what you put into this box, but something that will remind you why these ports are being forwarded would be a good idea. Enter the ip address to forward these ports to into the Private IP box. If you are forwarding ports so you can run a program on your computer, you should enter your computer's ip address into that box. Use the Protocol Type drop down box to select the protocol type of the ports you are forwarding. Enter the port to forward into the Private Port and the Public Port boxes. Put a dot into the Always radio button. When you are finished, click the Apply button.

And that is it! You are done!
