Port forwarding -
Nahin - 10.05.2014
Alright before I state my problem, I just want to let you guys know that I've tried all the guides that can be found on these forums.
This is my router and these are the steps that I have to follow :
http://portforward.com/english/route...-MP_Server.htm . I used this:
http://portforward.com/help/setup_static_ip_address.htm to set up a static IP address.
I just have one doubt, which IP should I enter in the local host field?

You shouldn't need to create a static IP address, just go to
http://whatismyipaddress.com/
Enter the IP that produces in the field.

What you could do is, press on start, write in "cmd" and then write "ipconfig" and press enter.
Scroll up and check your IPv4 Address, it's usually something as: 192.168.0.x
That's what you write in the input on your browser, then you should find the login information for your internet provider, the model of the router and what type it is. If you've been looking for that and the information does not work out. Then you should contact your internet providers and ask them about it.

That is not what I said, I told you to put that in the input of your browser, which equals here:
You should get a pop-up for name and password, and you need the information of your router&internetprovider&modelofrouter and search on ******, once you find it, try the names & passwords that you find, if you do not find any that works, then contact your internet provider.
However,
IF you do access it, go to "Services" --> "Add Custom Service", give the service a name e.g. SAMPServer, then you change the type to TCP/UDP and write in the port that you are using for the server.
When you've done that; run the server and use the IP displayed here:
http://www.whatismyip.com/ and the port that you used in the end e.g. (94.23.135.129:8888 // yourip:port).

Well, when I get to select the port type (TCP/UDP) and the port number (7777) it also says to enter the host IP.
Which IP should I enter here?
