We recommend using a reliable port forward tool like www.portchecktool.com. The port forward checker tool is a valuable resource for network troubleshooting. It helps you check whether your ISP (Internet Service Provider) is blocking specific ports, such as the commonly restricted HTTP port 80 and SMTP port 25.

What ports should be open on my router? For Lan to Wan access you should allow http(80) and https(443) and dns(53) for web access this is more than sufficient.

In computer networking, port forwarding or port mapping is an application of network address translation (NAT) that redirects a communication request from one address and port number combination to another while the packets are traversing a network gateway, such as a router or firewall.
