Best Answer: Log into the web interface of your router Go to the Access Tab Go to Virtual Server Select Enable Enter a name For protocol select * In Public and Private Port enter the port you need forwarded(same port for both) In LAN Server enter the IP address of your PC or gaming console (you may want to set your PC or gaming console network settings to use a static address) Click Add. Your port is now forwarded to your internal IP address. - greedosdead
one of two thing your computers firewall or the routers (Spelled like that) if its the router go to its config page and find your port forwarding you will need your computers ip and the port number that you need for the game. - jord369
