Multiple connections are required by some applications, such as internet games, video conferencing, Internet telephony, and others. These applications have difficulties working through NAT (Network Address Translation). This section is used to open multiple ports or a range of ports in your router and redirect data through those ports to a single PC on your network. You can enter ports in various formats:

Range (50-100)

Individual (80, 68, 888)

Mixed (1020-5000, 689)

Example:

Suppose you are hosting an online game server that is running on a PC with a private IP Address of 192.168.2.50. This game requires that you open multiple ports (6159-6180, 99) on the router so Internet users can connect.
