This modem is being given by BSNL for broadband connection.

This is the latest modem from ZTE for BSNL. So u can’t find the portforwarding of this particular modem in www.portforward.com . only the previous versions of this modem are available. Port forwarding is very important in increasing the speed of torrent software. You can use bittorrent or utorrent.

so here I give you the detailed description of port forwarding of this modem.

Plz follow step by step. Its very easy.

IMPORTANT:

Pleases make sure that you are already using the modem for browsing and its not d first time connection.

Step 1:

By default d ip address of the modem vil b 192.168.1.1. open any webbrowser (I prefer internet explorer). And just type only d ipaddress and u vil get d screen as above.

Step 2:

By default d username and password for login vil b admin. If u hav chaged d username and password plz enter tat.

Step 3:

U vil get d device information.

Step 4:

Click d configuration menu on d left. U vil see three options, click internet(marked vit black circle).

Step 5:

This was d assumption I hav made which I hav told u already. U must b using dis modem for internet. Or else dis row vil not b there(first time users plz establish d connection). Click on Disconnect.

Step 6:

U vil see Advanced..|status menu. Click on dat and see d left side menu.

Step 7:

Now d configuration menu contains more options.

Step 8:

Click on Advanced Security

Step 9:

and u vil get d page on right displaying DMZ host and port forwarding options.click portforwarding.

Step 10:

Important: U must configure ur system’s ip address manually. Don’t get dynamic address from d isp.For setting up static ip address go through www.portforward.com . I also assume dat u are familiar wit bittorrent software. This post is only meant for portforwarding. To know abt bittorrent u can see its home page www.bittorrent.com .

So now u can specify your own application name and internal host is d system’s ip address(Manually configured).

Go and check d port used in bittorrent s/w and enter d port no here.

Important: plz make a note tat bittorrent uses only d port u hav given in d modem. Plz make sure dat randomization of bittorrent port s unchecked(u can see in d preferences menu in bittorrent s/w).

Its enough to give d port no in either of these 3 rows as shown above. ( u must enter d same port no in all d three boxes)

Important: don’t give d port no in all d three 3 rows. It vil generate an error.

then click apply.

Step 11:

U vil get d details as shown.

Step 12:

Goto system on LHS and click Reset&Restart.

Important: only click restart. Plz make sure dat Reset to factory default settings s unchecked.

As u see the steps for port forwarding in dis modem s very simple.

If d steps 1-7 doesn’t seem to work then d user can directly jump to step 8 as shown below.

Directly type http://192.168.1.1/advan_menu.html in d webbrowser.

Plz reply.
