Configure your Computer to Have a Static IP Address

This is the port forwarding page from your Belkin F9K1102 router.

You should now be on a page like the one you see here. Place a check mark in the box labeled Enable.

Next is the Description. Type in the name of the program in this box. It isn't really important what you enter in this box, but we encourage you to enter something that will help you to remember why you forwarded this port.

If you are forwarding a single port, enter that number in both of the boxes labeled Inbound port. Enter this same number in both boxes under the heading of Private port also. If you are forwarding a range of ports, enter the lowest number in the range in the left hand box of Inbound port and again in the left box of Private port. Enter the highest number of the range in the right box of both Inbound port and Private port.

The next box to the right is the drop down menu labeled Type. From this menu pick the type of protocol you want to use when forwarding your ports.

Under the heading of Private IP address, type in the IP address that you are forwarding these ports to. If you are forwarding a port to run a program on computer A, enter computer A's IP address here.

The only thing left to do is click the button at the top of the page labeled Apply Changes.

Test if Your Ports are Open

Now that you have forwarded ports on the Belkin F9K1102 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.
