NetGear Routers
The following procedure applies to NetGear MR814v2 and RP614v2 routers. If you
have a different NetGear model, the settings may vary slightly. This procedure
assumes that your router is correctly configured and connected to the Internet and
that your network is operational.
To configure a NetGear router:
1.
In a browser such as Internet Explorer, type the IP address of your router,
which you can find in your router’s documentation.
2.
Log in to your router setup using the user name and password, which you can
find in your router’s documentation.
3.
From the Advanced menu on the left of the page, select Port Forwarding.
4.
On the Port Forwarding page, select Add Custom Service.
5.
On the Ports-Custom Services page, enter this information for the first port
you need to open (such as port 1720):
NetGear routers automatically pass TCP and UDP traffic through the same port. You do
not have to designate TCP or UDP when you open ports.
6.
Click Apply.
7.
Repeat Steps 4 through 6 of this procedure for the remaining ports that you
need to open. (For the list of ports that you need to open, refer to the table on
page
.)
8.
When you have opened and assigned all of the ports listed in the table on page
, review the Port Forwarding page. Check that all the ports are correct,
enabled, and assigned to the correct Server IP (internal) Address.
