Free Port Forwarding Guides & PFConfig: Forward Your Ports Automatically
Port Forwarding BitLord on the Apple AirPortExtreme
BitLord chooses a random port to listen on when you install it. Before we can forward ports for BitLord, we need to find out what port BitLord is using. Go ahead and open BitLord.
In the menu at the top of your screen, click Options. Clicking Options will cause a menu to drop down. In this new menu click Preferences.
In the menu on the left the top option Connection should be selected. On the right hand side of this window you should see a Listen Port option. That is the port that you need to forward. You can change it if you like. Please enter the listen port below.

There is one more thing we need to do. We need to shut off the UPNP of BitLord.
In the menu on the left hand side under Advanced, click Connection. There should be an Enable UPnP Port Mapping(XP only) checkbox on the right hand side. Make sure it is unchecked.
To setup port forwarding on this router your computer needs to have a static ip address.
Try our free PF Setup Static IP Address Program which will setup a static ip address for you.
Or you can take alook 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.
