Free Port Forwarding Guides & PFConfig: Forward Your Ports Automatically
The Default Port Forwarding Guide for the Buffalo WHR-G54S
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 your computer.
Or you can 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 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 192.168.11.1.
You should see a box prompting you for your username and password. Enter your username and password now.
By default the username is root, and the password is blank. Click the Ok button to log in to your router.
Please visit our Default Router Passwords page if the username and password shown above did not work for you.
Click the Internet Games {Port Mapping} link near the left of the page.
These entries are protocol specific. If the ports you are forwarding need to be forwarded using the TCP protocol, you should enter those ports into the TCP section. If the ports you are forwarding need to be forwarded with the UDP protocol, you should enter those ports into the udp section.
Enter the ports to forward into the TCP or UDP box. These ports can be entered as a list 23,24,25, a range 500-600, or a combination of both 23,45,500-600.
Put a dot into the Manual Configuration radio button.
Enter the ip address to forward these ports to into the LAN IP Address box. If you are forwarding ports so you can run a program on your computer, you should enter your computer's ip address into that box.
When you are finished, click the Apply button.
And that is it! You are done!
To test if your port has been properly forwarded, you can use our Port Checker tool.
