Trying to port foward

Post by Sanocon »

so ive been trying to portforward and ive been going online on how to do it, not it said i had to type 2 different ip addresses but they dont work.

i think it's because of the type of router.

its a Lynksys Wireless-G Broadband Router
from Cisco Home networking. is there a different i.p. to type in in my browser?

Hi. Have you tried 192.168.1.1?
Try admin for both the username and password.

Not sure about that.

The default password is usually written on the router itself.
Anyway, as a last attempt, you can try this site: Linksys Router Default Passwords - Administrator Login

If none of the combinations above work, you can try to hard reset your router.
