Port Forwarding PlayStation Network on the Netopia 2247-02


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!




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 192.168.1.254.




You should see a box prompting you for your username and password. Enter your username and password now. By default the username is admin, and the password is admin1. Click the Ok button to log in to your router.

Please visit our default username and passsword page, if the username and password shown above did not work for you.




Click the Expert Mode link near the left of the page.




Click the OK button near the center of the page.




Click the Configure link near the left of the page.




Click the Advanced link near the bottom of the page.




Click the Pinholes link near the center of the page.




Click the Add button near the center of the page.
