NetGear Routers

The following procedure applies to NetGear MR814v2 and RP614v2 routers. If you have a different NetGear model, the settings may vary slightly. This procedure assumes that your router is correctly configured and connected to the Internet and that your network is operational.

To configure a NetGear router:

1.In a browser such as Internet Explorer, type the IP address of your router, which you can find in your router’s documentation.

2.Log in to your router setup using the user name and password, which you can find in your router’s documentation.

3.From the Advanced menu on the left of the page, select Port Forwarding.

4.On the Port Forwarding page, select Add Custom Service.

5.On the Ports-Custom Services page, enter this information for the first port you need to open (such as port 1720):

Setting

Description

 

 

Service Name

Any unique identifier (for example, you can use the text

 

from the Function column in the table on page 3-7).

 

 

Start Port

The specific port or the starting value of the range of ports

 

(see the table on page 3-7for the list of ports).

 

 

End Port

The specific port or the ending value of the range of ports

 

(see the table on page 3-7for the list of ports).

NetGear routers automatically pass TCP and UDP traffic through the same port. You do not have to designate TCP or UDP when you open ports.

6.Click Apply.

7.Repeat Steps 4 through 6 of this procedure for the remaining ports that you need to open. (For the list of ports that you need to open, refer to the table on page 3-7.)

8.When you have opened and assigned all of the ports listed in the table on page 3-7, review the Port Forwarding page. Check that all the ports are correct, enabled, and assigned to the correct Server IP (internal) Address.
