We will take one TP-link router as an example.

1. log in to the TP-Link router via the default gateway address. The router's address is the computer's gateway. If you don't know how to find the computer's gateway, please google it.

2. Click on “Forwarding” and then “Virtual Servers.”

3. Click “Add New.” Enter the Service Port, Internal Port, and IP Address. Then select “All” under Protocol and Click “Save.”

Usually, IP is DVR, NVR, or IP camera's IP

Port is their HTTP port.

After you finish port forwarding, you can open www.canyouseeme.org to check if the port is open.
