Configure your Computer to Have a Static IP Address
Port forwarding the Comstar WA-6202 to your computer can be more reliable if you first configure a static IP address on your computer. We have instructions to setup a static IP address for Windows 7, Windows 8, and a variety of other devices on our Static IP Address Settings page.
Please note that while setting up a static IP address on your computer is optional, it is still a very good idea to go ahead and do it. In the long run it will make your port forward much more reliable.

Forward a Port on the Comstar WA-6202 router
Find The Port Forwarding Section of the Comstar WA-6202
Beginning on the Access Point Status page of the Comstar WA-6202-V2 router, click the option in the left sidebar labeled Firewall, then Port Forwarding.
Configure the Port Forwarding section of your Comstar WA-6202
Now to forward a port, make the following changes:
First, place a checkmark in the box labeled Enable Port Forwarding.
Then, in the IP Address box, enter the LAN IP address of the computer or device you are forwarding these ports to.
In the Protocol drop down menu, choose the type of protocol you want to use to forward these ports.
Next is the Port Range. If you are forwarding a single port, enter that one number in both the left and right boxes. If you are forwarding a range of ports, enter the lowest number in the left box and the highest number in the right box.
Last is the Comment box. We recommend entering the name of the program you are forwarding these ports for here. This is not critical to the process, but is very helpful in the future to remember why you are forwarding these ports.
Finally, click the Apply Changes button.
That's all there is to it! Congratulations!
