Port Forwarding in Windows 7

[GERRYNICOL]

I have a small question, i can't do the successful port forwarding in windows 7 with my Belkin Router , in vista i was able to do it easily. If some one know the exact method to perform it, then please show me the right path. Thank you very much .

You might be connecting to the router to an ip outside of the range you have forwarded? set up the ports for a specific IP/IP range, set up Windows 7 to assign a static network IP to your machine. Hope this will help.

Prepare the Router

This stage differs from one router to another. We will give you a general idea and you should refer to the manual of your router for confirmation.

• Go to the administration interface of the router by typing its IP address in the web browser (for example 192.168.1.1)
• Enter Login and Password
• In the page that comes up, search for Port Forwarding.
• Then add following data:
  
  • Name: Give it a unique name like Remote Desktop
  • External Port: 3389
  • Internal Port: 3389
  • Destination IP address/server: Enter the IP address of the computer as defined in step 1 (e.g. 192.168.1.99)
