Port Forwarding for the ADDON ARM8200


What is Port Forwarding?
What is Port Triggering?




 

Before we can forward 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 Forward radio button. The port you need to forward is in the box to the right of the Manual Port Forward text. You can change this port if you want to. Just keep in mind that whatever port is in the Manual Port Forward 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 Forward box into the box below.

360Share's Port for incoming connections

To setup port forwarding on this router your computer needs to have a static ip address. 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!

Please enter the static ip you want to forward to:

192.168.1.




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 192.168.1.1.




You should see a box prompting you for your username and password. Enter your username and password now. By default both the username and password are addon. Click the Ok button to log in to your router.




Click the Services button near the top of the page.




Select NAT Rule Entry from the NAT Options drop down box.


Click the Add button near the bottom of the page.
