Port Forwarding Panel

Port Forwarding allows incoming traffic (from the Internet) to be forwarded to a particular PC or device on your local WLAN. Normally, incoming traffic from the Internet is blocked by the Firewall.

You need to use Port Forwarding to allow Internet users to access any server your are running on your PC, such as a Web server, FTP server, or E-mail server. Also, for some online games, Port Forwarding must be used in order for the game to function correctly. Note that Port Forwarding creates a security risk and should be disabled when not required.

Note: Some 3G Mobile Wireless Networks do not provide you with an Internet IP address, but an IP address on their own network. In this case, Port Forwarding can not be used because Internet users cannot reach your IP address.

▶To access the Port Forwarding panel, click or touch the Port Forwarding option under the path indicator.
