First we will need to gather some information.
Go to Start -> Run -> type "cmd" then hit OK
Once the Command Prompt opens up, type "ipconfig"
Write down your "Default Gateway" and "IPv4 Address" (Almost the same as the Gateway, just the last number is not a 1)
Now to the Port Forwarding. First, you need to gain access to your router.
Generally this is done by going to your browser, and typing "192.168.1.1" (This is the Default Gateway we just found in the Command Prompt).
You will then get a prompt to log in, unless you set a custom username when you set up the router, the login should be one of the following
- Spoiler:
Username: admin
Password:
Username: admin
Password: password
Username:
Password: password
Username:
Password: admin
* ("admin" can also be "administrator")
Once you get into the router, on the left you should see "Port Forwarding / Port Triggering" Click on that. (1)
Once on this page, click on "Add Custom Service" (2)
Enter the following. (The # is the IPv4 address from earlier.)
Click Apply.
Open up Hamachi
Go to System -> Preferences -> Settings -> Advanced Settings (at the bottum, if you see Basic Settings, then you are where you need to be)
Scroll down to Peer Connections
Click on both Local UDP address, and Local TCP address. (One at a time obviously xD)
Change the second, shorter box, to the Port we used from earlier. You do not need to enter an IP address in the first box.
Hamachi has now been port forwarder. Settings may not take effect until you restart Hamachi.
