Haven't seen you around for quite some time.

Did you go through blue_moon's IP to IP tutorial?
I really don't know what to recommend...

Forwarding ports depends on the router. You have to enter the port in question in a text box in the router's options.
If your friend does not have anyone who knows where this is, it will be in their router's instructions.

In my case, for example, I enter my IP address into a web browser. Login in using "admin" as the user name and no password.
This takes me to my router's configuration.

One of the tabs leads to a page with a bunch of text boxes for forwarding ports.
You then enter the port number in question into a box.

I actually never had to do this at all. My router did not get in the way of online play. (I now have no router as it has coughed out completely. Need a new one...)


That's really all I can say.

If his is passworded, I hope he can find what it is.

2. Previous post edited.
