. Configure the following settings below. When done, click

Enable Port Forwarding: Choose Yes to enable Port
Forwarding.
Famous Server List: Determine which type of service you
want to access.
Famous Game List: This item lists ports required for popular
online games to work correctly.
FTP Server Port: Avoid assigning the port range 0:1 for
your FTP server as this would conflict with the router’s native
FTP server assignment.
Service Name: Enter a service name.
Port Range: If you want to specify a Port Range for clients
on the same network, enter the Service Name, the Port
Range (e.g. 1000:10300), the LAN IP address, and leave the
Local Port empty. Port range accepts various formats such
as Port Range (300:30), individual ports (,8) or Mix
(101:104,301).
• When your network’s firewall is disabled and you set 80 as the
HTTP server’s port range for your WAN setup, then your http
server/web server would be in conflict with the router’s web
user interface.
• A network makes use of ports in order to exchange data,
with each port assigned a port number and a specific task.
For example, port 80 is used for HTTP. A specific port can only
be used by one application or service at a time. Hence, two
PCs attempting to access data through the same port at the
same time would fail. For example, you cannot set up Port
Forwarding for port 100 for two PCs at the same time.
