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 10.0.0.2.




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 zoomadsl. Click the Ok button to log in to your router.




Click the Advanced Setup button near the top of the page.




Click the NAT button near the center of the page.




Select NAT Option from the NAT Rule Entry drop down box.


Click the Add button near the bottom of the page.




Select RDR from the Rule Flavor drop down box. Enter a number that has not yet been used into the Rule ID box. Leave IF Name set to All. Use the Protocol drop down box to select the protocol type of the ports you are forwarding. Enter the ip address to forward these ports to into the Local Address From and Local Address To 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. Leave Global Address From and Global Address To set to 0.0.0.0. Leave Destination Port From, Destination Port To and Local Port set to Any Other Port. If you are forwarding a single port, enter that port number into the Local Port, Destination Port From and the Destination Port To boxes. If you are forwarding a range of ports, enter the lowest number of that range into the Local Port, Destination Port From box. Then enter the highest number of that range into the Destination Port To box. When you are finished, click the Save Changes button.

Click the Advanced Setup button near the top of the page.

Click the IP Filter button near the center of the page.




Select None from the Security Level drop down box. Select Accept from the Public Default Action, Private Default Action and DMZ Default Action drop down box.

And that is it! You are done!
