Configure your Computer to Have a Static IP Address
Port forwarding the Dlink DIR-625 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.

Beneath that is the IP Address. Enter the LAN IP address of the computer oyu are forwarding these ports to. If you don't know how to find your computer's IP address, What is my IP Address is a great guide on how to find it.
Farther to the right are the boxes labeled Ports to Open. Enter the ports you want to forward in the box labeled TCP, and again in the UDP box. These can be entered as:
- a list, 22,23,24
- a range, 80-100
- a combination of the two, 22,23,80-100
The Schedule needs to be set to Always.
Set the Inbound Filter to Allow All.
