Advanced Features – Port Forwarding
Port Forwarding allows incoming traffic from the Internet to be forwarded to a particular
computer or device on your Wi-Fi network. Normally, the built-in firewall blocks incoming traffic
from the Internet. Port forwarding allows Internet users to access any server you are running on
your computer, such as a Web, FTP, or Email server. For some online games, port forwarding
must be used in order for the games to function correctly.
IMPORTANT:
Port forwarding creates a security risk and should not be turned on unless it is
required.
Some mobile networks provide you with an IP address on their own network rather than an
Internet IP address. In this case, Port Forwarding cannot be used, because Internet users cannot
reach your IP address.
Port Forwarding
To turn on port forwarding, move the
ON/OFF
slider to
ON
.
To turn off port forwarding, so that any application can connect to the Internet, move the slider
to
OFF
.
