This page explains how you can set up port forwarding on an Ultra Hub modem.
Before you begin
Port forwarding is a way to make a computer or server on your private network accessible to computers on the Internet, regardless if you are behind a router or Firewall. It is commonly used for hosting:
- Game servers
- Peer-to-peer downloading
- Static VPN routes
- Voice over IP type applications.
