Default Re: Any Easy Way Around Routers?
You go into the router configuration and add it to the forwarded ports list, along with the LAN IP of the PC that the port is being forwarded to. You can find this IP address by running the MS DOS prompt and running the "ipconfig" program. This will also be the IP address that SE4 gives you in the TCP/IP mode screen if you are behind a router. How you forward the ports depends on the router you have. Look in the manual that came with the router, or search online if you no longer know where it is.
