Free Port Forwarding Guides & PFConfig: Forward Your Ports Automatically

Port Forwarding BCDC++ on the FRITZ WLAN7050

What is Port Forwarding?

View all Router Screenshots.

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

In the menu at the top of your screen click the file option. In the menu that drops down click the Settings link.

In the menu on the left hand side of the window that popped up click the Connection Settings link. You should see a TCP box and an UDP box. Enter a random port into each of these boxes. It doesn't matter what ports you choose, but a port numbers between 10000 and 60000 would be a good idea. A higher numbered port is generally the best to use, because most ISP's do not block the higher numbered ports. Please enter the port you chose for the TCP box into the box below.

Please enter the port you chose for the UDP box into the box below.

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 192.168.178.1.
