Free Port Forwarding Guides & PFConfig: Forward Your Ports Automatically
The Default Port Forwarding Guide for the CNET CNAD804-NF
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 10.0.0.2.
You should see a box prompting you for your username and password. Enter your username and password now.
By default the username is admin, and the password is epicrouter. 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 Virtual Server link near the left of the page.
Enter a number that has not yet been used into the ID box.
If you are forwarding a single port, enter that port number into the Start Port and the End Port boxes. If you are forwarding a range of ports, enter the lowest number of that range into the Start Port box. Then enter the highest number of that range into the End Port box.
Use the Port Type drop down box to select the protocol type of the ports you are forwarding.
Enter the ip address to forward these ports to into the Host 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 Add Port Range button.
When you're finished, click Save Settings near the left of the screen to save your changes.
And that's it! You're done!
To test if your port has been properly forwarded, you can use our Port Checker tool.
