This page will show you how to setup a port forward on the CD-R King 3G-52 router.

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.

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.

NordVPN is the fastest VPN!

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 be on a page that looks like the one above.

In the second section titled Virtual Server Settings, use the box labeled service name to enter the name of the program you are forwarding these ports for. This is not essential for the forward, but it is recommended that you do this for future reference.

If you are forwarding only a single port, enter that number in the next four boxes. In both the external Port boxes, and the Internal Port boxes. If you are forwarding a range of ports, enter the lowest number of the range in the left external Port box, and the left Internal Port box. Key in the highest number of the range in the right external Port box, and the right Internal Port box.

Type in the LAN IP Address of the computer you are forwarding these ports to in the box labeled Internal Server IP.

Once you have completed all this, click the ADD button.

Then click APPLY at the very bottom of the page.
