เริ่มหัวข้อโดย: MattBurditt1 ที่ 10/05/25, 04:17:45

Introduction
Laggy games or buffering streams? Port forwarding might be your fix. This guide walks you through safe setup.

What Is Port Forwarding?
It directs external traffic to a specific device (e.g., Xbox or OBS PC) by opening a port in your router.

Step-by-Step Setup

Find your device’s local IP (e.g., 192.168.1.100).

Log into your router (usually via 192.168.1.1).

Add a rule for the required port (e.g., 3074 for Xbox Live).

Security Warning
Never forward Port 22 (SSH) or 3389 (RDP) without a VPN.

Verify rules with Port Checker.com (https://theportchecker.com) post-setup.

Pro Tip: Use UPnP for automatic forwarding (but disable if unused).
