CONFIGURE BELKIN WIRELESS G ROUTER FOR WINDOWS HOME SERVER REMOTE ACCESS

Manufacturer: Belkin
Model: F5D7230-4
Hardware Version: 7000
Firmware Version: 9.01.10

The Belkin Wireless G Router (Part # F5D7230-4) supports the Windows Home Server automatic router configuration over UPnP standards. However, for best results we recommend to manually configure Port Forwarding to your Windows Home Server.

OVERVIEW

Log on to your router’s setup page
Enable UPnP (Universal Plug and Play)
Assign a static IP address to your Windows Home Server
Configure Port Forwarding to your Windows Home Server

STEP 1 - Log on to your router’s setup page

Open your web browser and enter your router’s URL http://192.168.2.1 is the default Belkin router IP address. It should look something like the image below.

STEP 2 - Enable UPnP (Universal Plug and Play)

Click on "Utilities" and Enable the UPnP option under the “UPNP Enabling” section and click the "Apply Changes" button.

STEP 3 - Assign a static IP address to your Windows Home Server

The Belkin Wireless G Router (Part # F5D7230-4) does not support DHCP address reservation. You must configure your Windows Home Server to use a static IP address before proceeding to the next step.

STEP 4 - Configure port forwarding to your Windows Home Server

a) Click on "Firewall" and proceed to the "Virtual Servers" section.

b) You need to enable forwarding for 3 different ports: HTTP (80) , HTTPS (443) , RWW (4125). Each of these will need its own row on the table. For all of these, the "LAN IP Address" should be the static IP address you gave to the Windows Home Server in step 3.

LAN IP Address: (From Step 3)
LAN Port: 80
Public Port: 80
Enable: Check

LAN IP Address: (From Step 3)
