Firewalling for the Level One FBR-1411TX






 

Before we can open ports for 360Share, we need to figure out what port 360Share is using. Here is a brief walkthrough on how to do that. Go ahead and open up 360Share.



Click Tools in the menu at the top of your screen. In the list that drops down click Options.



In the menu at the left hand side of your screen double click the Advanced option. Clicking Advanced, should drop down a couple more options. In this new list of options click the Firewall Config option. Put a dot into the Manual Port open radio button. The port you need to open is in the box to the right of the Manual Port open text. You can change this port if you want to. Just keep in mind that whatever port is in the Manual Port open box, should also be in the Listen On Port box. Then click the Apply button at the bottom of the page.

Please enter the number that was in the Manual Port open box into the box below.

360Share's Port for incoming connections

To configure this router's firewalling properly you should setup a static ip address on your computer. Take a look at our Static IP Address guide to setup a static ip address. When you are finished setting up a static ip address, please come back to this page and enter the ip address you setup in the Static IP Address box below.

Do not skip this step!




Open a web browser like internet explorer or Netscape. Enter the ip address of your router in the address bar of your browser. In the picture above the address bar has http://www.google.com in it. Just replace all of that with the ip address of your router. By default the ip address should be set to 192.168.123.254.




You should see a box prompting you for your password. Enter your password now. By default your password is admin. Click the Login button to log in to your router.




Click the Security Setting link near the top of the page.

The menu on the left should change. In this new menu, click Packet Filter.




Click the Inbound Filter button near the bottom of the page.




We will list a series of lines here that will show you exactly how to setup your router's firewall for 360Share. Go ahead and enter the settings shown below into the Inbound Packet Filter menu.
