Thread: Error while portforwarding in D-Link Modem

I'm using D'link GLB 802c modem on BSNL broadband 500plan. I followed all the steps to porforwarding for my modem from portforwarding.com , but I'm getting error-'Mandatory parameter not specified'. I've no clue what I've done wrong . If someone can help me to rectify any mistake I might've done while setting up the modem configs , I'll be thankful

Here's my screenshot like you said. Thank you for relplying. :-)

please post the following information;
(1)Start/RUN type cmd type ipconfig /all
(2) the rule you made
(3)The application/s you want to Port forward.
If you know the Port numbers.

Ipconfig/all list

The rule I made was shown in the attachment. I was trying to port forward in utorrent.

Try this

It didn't work

Assuming 15560 as your uTorrent port NAT Rule Add screen should be look like this

I'm not sure if i got it correct. My utorrent shows the green tick indicating proper connection, but when I check whether port or forwarded or not, it show's as not forwarded. I'm gettging fairly good speed's too(about 160 kbps) but i used to get it sometimes when I had done nothing too. So I'm now confused if it's fixed or not.

if uTorrent shows green tick it means port is forwarded properly.

Enabling UPnP can work as a substitute to port forwarding.

In utorrent, CTRL + P > connection

Karamjeet is right. You have no worries as your port is forwarded correctly. The evidence is right in front of you:

• µTorrent shows a Green Tick in the status bar
• You are getting 160 kBps (without port forwarding the speed would have been less than 10 kBps)

Um then i should be happy I guess. Thanx guys
You are slightly wrong about

* You are getting 160 kBps (without port forwarding the speed would have been less than 10 kBps)

this though. I used to get speeds close to 120-130 kbps without portforwarding or enabling upnp in the beginning. But it was very inconsistent. Sometimes it was 100(mostly 70-80) and at other times it was 2-3kbps and also utorrent used to show red alert at all times. Anyway speeds now are reliable and at all times in the upward region of 140kbps. So thanx again for helping me friends.

that was probably in bridged mode..
