Configuring Router Port Forwarding
To make video calls with your V500 system when you have a router, you must
open and assign ports in the firewall. This section describes how to do that
with some common routers from NETGEAR
®
, Linksys
®
, and D-Link
®
. Most
other routers require similar procedures.
Before you can change your router configuration, you must know:
•
The IP address of your router, which you can find in your router’s
documentation. (Many routers use the default address 192.168.1.1.)
•
Your router’s administrator name and password, which you can find in
your router’s documentation. (Many routers use the default user name
admin
and the password blank or
password
.)
•
The IP address that has been assigned to your system if you’re using
DHCP, which you can find on the LAN Properties screen. (See
Configuring LAN Properties
on page
3-2
for more information.)
With any router, you must open the ports listed here:
