This page will show you how to setup a port forward on the Baudtec T263R1U router.

Use a VPN

Have you considered using a VPN when you connect to the internet? A VPN is a great way to increase your security and anonymity while surfing.

We use and recommend NordVPN because not only is it the fastest VPN, it includes a new feature called Meshnet that makes securely sharing your home network super simple. With NordVPN Meshnet, you can connect to your devices from anywhere in the world, completely secure, over a highly encrypted VPN tunnel.

When shopping for a VPN, make sure that they meet the following criteria:

  • Your VPN provider should have a no-logs policy. This means that they do not keep any logs of any kind.
  • Make sure that your VPN provider has lots of exit nodes all around the world.
  • Check that your VPN will not affect your speed.
  • Verify that your VPN provider uses WireGuard as the underlying protocol.
  • Many people prefer a VPN provider that is not based in the United States.

This is the list of requirements that we used when we were shopping around for a VPN provider. There are lots of free, shady VPN providers out there that we looked at and dismissed.

Based in Panama, using diskless servers, and with over 6,100 servers in 61 countries, we can safely say that NordVPN satisfies all of these requirements.

Once you've set up your NordVPN account on multiple computers and enabled Meshnet, you can seamlessly access all of your devices as if they were on the same network. You don't even have to log in to your router. It's very simple.

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.

You should now be on the Virtual Server page, like the one you see above. In the box labeled Application enter the name of the program you are forwarding these ports. It is not really critical what you enter in this box, but it would be a good idea to enter something that will help you to remember why you are forwarding these ports.

If you are forwarding a single port, enter that port number into the boxes labeled Start Port Number and End Port Number. If you are forwarding a range of ports, enter the lowest number of the range in the box labeled Start Port Number and the highest number in the range in the box labeled End Port Number.

Finally, click the SAVE button at the bottom of the page. That's it you're done!

In the last box labeled Local IP Address enter the IP Address you are forwarding these ports to. For example if you are forwarding a port to run a program on a specific computer, be sure to use that computer's IP Address in this box.

Test if Your Ports are Open

Now that you have forwarded ports on the Baudtec T263R1U you should test to see if your ports are forwarded correctly.

To test if your ports are forwarded you should use our Open Port Check tool.
