Stan` Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 * That depends on your local ip, you can figure it out using ipconfig on Windows; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silier Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 Small note: if you have more than 1 computer in household, ip may differ everytime you start your computer again and connects to internet 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaren Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 I only have the Status, Network, and Management tabs. Can someone please help me find a way to port forward without those tabs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vantha Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 @Jaren are you sure your device is a fiberhome router? Double check the manufacturer and model number. You can search for port forwarding in the router manual. With the device's model number you can also probably find its manual on the internet. Most manuals have a seperate subchapter about port forwarding. Keep in mind, you don't have to do port forwarding to play multiplayer. Port forwarding only helps other player join games that you host. If you can't connect to games yourself it is a different issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaren Posted April 13 Report Share Posted April 13 (edited) I'm pretty sure that it's fiberhome but I see that all of the above pictures have five tabs (Status, Network, Security, Application, and Management) but mine only has the ones shown in the picture (Status, Network, and Management). Is there a way to port forward without those tabs or some way to get them to show up or is it just not posable to port forward with my router?

Vantha Posted April 13 Report Share Posted April 13 In that case, you probably don't have admin access to your router, that's why the credentials you entered only let you change limited settings on the router interface. Do you know who the admin is? If not, it's likely your ISP, contact your ISP usually they can set up a port forwarding rule for you. If that's not possible (and you are the only person in the network) you could set the router to bridge mode and plug your computer into it.
