  • A Guide to Port Forwarding DLink Wireless Router

    The port forwarding set up is reliant upon the specific brand and model number of the

    router being used. Port forwarding of a router is required to allow access to your

    network device. Regardless of the DLink Router being used, the process for port

    forwarding is essentially similar. You will need to enable ports by locating the port

    range-forwarding screen. With some DLINK routers the port forwarding screen is located

    within the Applications and Games or Filters tab; in others it is located in the advance

    tools tab. The set up instruction outlined below is an example of port forwarding using

    DLINK Model DI-524.

    (192.168.0.1) followed by pressing Enter.

    Step 2

    the routers username and password here. Then click Log In

    factory default using the reset button on most routers.
