Hmm... this question has been asked numerous times! What you need to do is click on Start / "run" .... type ... cmd ,,, hit enter! then it will come up with the command prompt.... type in ipconfig then press enter!

After that open up your Internet Explorer and type in your ip address. example..

Linksys router default ip is 192.168.1.101 <--- 01 stands for.. you are the first PC on the network

So.. your router IP would be 192.168.1.1 <--- type that into your internet explorer! It will ask you for a USER and PASSWORD. Assuming you haven't changed it.... they should be admin/admin!

Find something in the settings that says Port Forwarding!

then give your forwarded port a name... like RF or Red... etc...

Check the UDP box ... port to forward is 7755 to 7755 ....
The in the ip box that is left open you will put .01 (the PC you are on the network) check the enable box and then apply your settings!

I think this is the way you do it.... I didnt actually look at my settings but, I'm 97% sure thats how you do it! Maybe if you told us what kind of router you have it could help us out!
