To forward a single port, enter that port number in both boxes of External Port Range and both boxes next to Internal Port Range.

To forward a range of ports, enter the lowest number of that range in the left box of External Port Range and Internal Port Range. Enter the highest number of the range in the right boxes of both the External Port Range and Internal Port Range.

In the box labeled Internal PC 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 your computer, make sure that you are using that computer's IP address here.

Next you are going to click Add, then at the top of the page, Save.
