Thread: Needd Help Opeaning extra Ports

Hi i have a BSNL Broadbrand connection HOME250 plan with UTstarcom UT300R2U white colour modem can any one tell me how to open extra ports in the modem

Thank u
Meeran

The Problem with ths Bsnl Connection is the Modem. I Have 2 modems 1 UT300R2U & a HUAWEI Both dontwork sometimes. Please Help me These Bsnl Broadband Service Executives r Pathetic. I can handle the Huawei Modem Sometimes But This 300R2U is impossible Can Someone Help..............Both are white in color Attached to a cable.

hello meeransh for the UT300R2U there is not much of an option to open specific ports although you can allow all traffic to go to a certain computer(i.e. somewhat like opening all ports to a computer)...you can do this by logging in to your modem(192.168.1.1 username/password is admin/admin).. go to advanced setup ,click on NAT and click on DMZ host.. then type the ip address of the computer where you want to open ports.. if you dont know the ip address.. you can open the command prompt of your computer and type ipconfig.. u will most probably have an ip like 192.168.1.x ...Then enter the ip in the modem page and save/reboot..
This will route traffic to your computer i.e. all ports open to your computer.. be careful at such instances as you will need a good firewall protecting your computer.. and you will need to open those specific ports in your firewall as well..including windows firewall..

Thank you for the reply, can you tell me how open the ports in the firewall that you mentioned

thank you

you mean in the windows firewall?? if so , go to control panel ,switch to classic mode and clik on windows firewall, there in one of the tabs, you will find add exception/port..enter a name for it, enter the port no.. and your done!!!

no, this is your internal ip 192.168.1.x not the 59.92.x.x nor 117.x.x.x

then.. wat is 59.92.x.x nor 117.x.x.x?? how to find it?? mine is pppoe connection

59.92.x.x or 117.x.x.x is your external ip.. you can find that out here - Find My IP Address - Lookup
You wont require that for port forwarding..
59.92.x.x is the external ip for old customers
117.x.x.x is the external ip for new customers
