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

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

On the left side of this page click on Network. Now we need to what port is in use for Warez under the option "Listen port". It doesn't really matter what port you choose, but a port between 9000 and 60000 would be a good idea. These higher numbered ports are rarely blocked by ISPs. Once you have chosen a port (9000 is the default for Warez) please enter that port number into the box to the right of the Network settings box. That port should also be put into the Listen port box. I also need to you enter that port number into the box below.

Open a web browser like Internet Explorer or Firefox. Enter the internal IP address of your router in the address bar of your browser. If you do not know your routers internal IP address please read our How To Find Your Routers IP Address guide.

In the picture above the address bar has http://www.google.com in it. Just replace all of that with the internal IP address of your router. By default the IP address should be set to 172.16.0.1.
