How to port forward a SA:MP server!
Hello guys, the reason I am making this thread is because a lot
of people have asked me on the SA-MP forums in a private message on how to port forward
a SA:MP server and I haven't got enough time to explain it.. So that's why I am making
this tutorial thread! Note, I am using the Netgear WNR2000v2 router, so the settings
maybe different.
