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.
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.
Click the Access to the configuration pages link near the bottom of the page.
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 admin. Click the Ok button to log in to your router. Please visit our default username and passsword page, if the username and password shown above did not work for you.
Click the Configuration link near the left of the page.
You should now see a new menu. In this new menu, click Advanced.
Click the Router link near the left of the page.
We will list a series of lines here that will show you exactly how to forward the ports you need to forward. Apple Remote Desktop requires you to forward the 3283,5900,5988 ports. Go ahead and enter the settings shown above into the Port Forwarding - NAT menu and then click Submit.
You should see another page of settings that need to be entered into one of the blank lines on your routers Port Forwarding - NAT page. Go ahead and enter those settings and then click Submit.
And that is it! You are done!
