If you have a Spectrum router and you are trying to forward a port or get an open port then you've come to the right place.
Create an Open Port in Spectrum Routers
Charter Spectrum routers are relatively easy to get an open port in. In most Spectrum routers the following steps will get your port forwarded.
- Click on the Network tab, which is at the left of the screen.
- Find the Wan link at the left of the screen and click on it.
- Click the Port Forward tab at the top of the screen.
We have detailed instructions for each Spectrum Router listed below.
- If this is correct, select your router below
- If you want to select a different application, please see our List of Ports.
Use a VPN Instead
Have you considered using a VPN instead of forwarding a port? For most users, a VPN is a much simpler and more secure choice than forwarding a port.
We use and recommend NordVPN because not only is it the fastest VPN, it includes a new feature called Meshnet that makes forwarding a port no longer necessary for most applications. With NordVPN Meshnet, you can connect to your devices from anywhere in the world, completely secure, over a highly encrypted VPN tunnel.
Every time you click on one of our affiliate links, such as NordVPN, we get a little kickback for introducing you to the service. Think of us as your VPN wingman.
