Opening ports - UPC Horizon box.

airmax87

Hello, I would like to open some ports
[6000-6009 (inbound/outbound), TCP port 7000 (outbound)]
Yet I cannot get my head around what goes where, The menu layout is different from what I was used to ( and the wireless range is bollocks )
I couldn't find help on google/searching the board on a simple what to put where guide.

You're talking about directionally opening ports, which is a firewall function and these ports are not blocked by default on the horizon box (there is no firewall on the box itself IIRC) but you show the port forwarding screen, which is something different entirely.


Quick edit, You are trying to setup GGPO yea? So you want to try setup port triggering and not port forewarding like this page describes HERE

No idea how to set it up on horizon TBH.. Let us know if you figure it out.

Yeah it's for GGPO, ill give that link a look now.

EDIT: Here's what comes up, what goes where ? I'm not very good at the networking end of computers.

Id say put 7000 in the first and 6000-6009 in the second and see how that goes?
