How to portforward without accessing router page
-
Hello everyone,
I have discovered that using utorrent, you can open server port without needing to access the router page, here's how it's done.-
Open utorrent, then: Options -> Preferences -> Connection
-
In the port section, put "4976", and tik the following options:
-
Apply and press OK.
-
Completely quit from utorrent.
-
Start your bo2 dedicated server.
-
Start utorrent.
Your port will now be forwarded, as long as you have utorrent opened.
This works! i've tested it myself as well as another person. FragsAreUs

Please note that this relies on your modem or router having UPnP support, meaning it may not work on older devices. We will also not be providing any sort of support for people using this method, so please only use this at your own discretion. If you do not have the ability to forward a port to host a server, there is probably a reason for it.

RezTech ya I should of made a comment of that when i was looking on why that was possible but its better that someone else said something about it and do agree with "If you do not have the ability to forward a port to host a server, there is probably a reason for it."

Just a small head up, if that method works one can also add a permanent forward with Windows by opening the properties of the upnp device shown for the router in the network browser.

Xerxes its what i told zaid yesterday but for him when I told him to go to his networking explorer he said nothing showed up for him and I know if you have a xfinity/comcast rental then you actually cant do that method you also would suggest
