Hey all,

I have a MRi router, and the model is Viking. I need to open another port. This allows one port of the router IP address to be directed towards a paritcular server in the office. So, for example, your router's IP address is 1.2.3.4 and you open port 80, forwarding it to a server in your office with the IP, say, 5.6.7.8 that is running a webserver. Now, if anyone tries to access http://1.2.3.4/ from the outside world, the router should direct them to the webserver on the 5.6.7.8 server.

Try this great site, you will need the exact name and model of your router but they provide guides free on many routers. Port Forward.com

If the guys problem is BitTorrent then Port 80 is not the problem...

He wants to portforward, nothings blocking his ports...
