Title: (50 000 caps reward) router firewall issue
Post by: greenthumb on August 18, 2012, 07:09:16 pm

Hello i have problem with my router, which firewall is set to block certain ports which i need for playing games(fonline) or using some softs(MIRC, mumble...).

Iam looking for way to overcome this obstacle. I was using VPN server to play fonline before, but now VPN which i was using is disabled. If you have VPN, and you can share access. Or if you know any other way i can overcome router firewall filetring and join fonline server, i will pay you 50 000 caps ingame as soon as i will be able to join game!

Thanks for your time, please help.

If you need to open a port for FOnline then try these steps

1.Click "Start," then "Control Panel." If you are using Vista, double-click "Windows Firewall." If you are using XP, double-click "Security Center," then click "Windows Firewall."

2.Click "Allow a Program Through Windows Firewall" if you are using Vista. Click the "Exceptions" tab, then "Add Port." If you are using Windows XP, click the "Advanced" tab, then click "Settings."

3.Type the name of the gaming application (FOnline) in the "Name" field, then type the port numbers in the appropriate box or boxes. Select the appropriate protocol (TCP or UDP). If you are using Windows XP, enter your IP address into the "Computer Name or IP Address" field.
Click "OK." Click "OK" again. Close Windows Firewall and give Cyber Jesus 50K.

I don't need your caps, coz otherwise is not helping anymore. First are you certain is a router and not modem? Also open Command Prompt (if you are windows user) and type in ipconfig then where it says default gateway copy that IP and paste it in the web browser then the router's admin page should pop up. You said you have no access to the router. Try looking on back of the device for a sticker with user and password. If it isn't there then try typing as user and password this:

USER:admin or administrator
PASS:admin or administrator

If not resseting the router might do the trick. Since it will return to the factory settings, there should be a tiny button on the router that will do the tricl. Keep it pressed for 10-15 secconds.. If you can tell me the router's brand I could help you more.

Thanks for advices, guys i fixed it by using free VPN, Jesus problem is with my router firewall not windows firewall.

Gob i found blog with similar advices, i checked router too, but i cannot acces to router in way you have mentioned. So i decided to use some VPN service, becouse i was using my bro's VPN until it was disabled. Now iam using OpenVPN and it works fine for now.

Thanks guys anyway.
