new program for opening ports
 

Hey all

Cuz a lot of ppl have problems opening ports on their router/modem and i couldn't find any good free program for opening ports using upnp, i decided to create one myself.

After many weeks of programming and testing i finaly have something quite stable (or that's what i think/hope). The program loads the ports opened on your router and shows them in a list, enables you to add new ports and games without any user/pass of your router. Ofcourse your router must support upnp (most routers do these days).

Some screen shots:

Add game button screen:
After clicking "add game" you can select several games/programs and easy add their default ports by clicking "add ports".

Here you can see the usage of your internet connection (not your local adapter).

I'd rather send people to www.portforward.com personally... If they still dont get the give me your hand guide they aren't supposed to host..

Portforward.com is a good guide but there are still some problems:
-some ppl don't know what router they have
-some ppl don't know the user/pass
-some ppl don't know the right ip

ofcourse if u don't know one of these things you are probly too n00b to put up a good server anyway :)

lol, thats a weird IP for a router...

its been a while since I used a linksys router so I can't remember - is PnP enabled by default?

On the setup I use now it isn't.

cool idea though :D

in most cases upnp is enabled because programs like MSN, µtorrent, teredo, ... use it to open ports for filetransfer,...
