Router mode: Add a port forwarding rule for a custom

The access point/router lists default services and applications that you can use in port
forwarding rules. If the service or application is not predefined, you can add a port
forwarding rule with a custom service or application.
To add a port forwarding rule with a custom service or application:
1. Find out which port number or range of numbers the service or application uses.
You can usually find this information by contacting the publisher of the service or
application or through user groups or news groups.
2. Open a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
access point/router network.
3. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net in the address field.
If you are not connected to the access point/router network but to the same network
as the access point/router, enter the IP address that is assigned to the access
point/router. If you do not know the IP address, see Find the IP address of the access
point/router on page 29.
