Network Setup

• The router is the device that the Internet sees; it holds the public IP address. The computers behind the router, on the other hand, are invisible to the Internet as they hold a local IP address each. Port forwarding is necessary in the router because computers will send information directed to the public IP address and the router needs to know where to send that information.

• Your local IP address should be automatically shown to you by this desktop software once installed and started. If your computer is behind a router, the router will need to setup your router to allow incoming traffic by mapping the public IP address into the local IP address through the port forwarding technique. For more information on port forwarding and router configuration, please see www.portforward.com

• For security reasons, routers don't normally allow external traffic into your home or office network.

• Some ISPs can block incoming connections to well known ports (80 and 8080 for HTTP, 20 and 21 for FTP, 25 for SMTP, 110 for POP3). If that is the case, you need to forward a non blocked port number in the router and map it into your computer port number.
