Port forwarding (another problem)

Post by bla bla »

Ok I know that there are millions of posts that are like this, but I didn't take the time to look. I was following Benblue's tutorial for Port Forwarding a router, but I when I got to step 2 I got stuck. Benblue's pic showed me that there should be a password blank for me to put in my password. I have no idea where that is. Any help would be appreciated.

What kind of router?

What OS?

Did you look at portforward.com?

Also, try this thread... I finally got my server running after some firmware updates on my router, but the thread I posted looking for help may help you...

Do you have a firewall running on the computer as well as the router? You may need to allow connections for TT on a software firewall, too.

Most routers have a built in firewall.

This would be easier if you told us specs about your computer and router.

Router brand, model, etc. and system specs of your computer

Sounds like you have a cable modem... that probably doesn't have a firewall.

What kind of computer are you using? Who makes it? What is your operating system?

Is your computer directly connected to the cable modem, or is there a box that the ethernet cable plugs into before it goes to the cable modem? Maybe you have a wireless connection. What wireless box is it running through?
