Unlocking ports

[xxdryicexx]

Hello, I have a friend who has a wireless router, the router is a Belkin Pre-n.

He is trying to unlock ports in order to play a game online. But he is unsure of how to do it correctly.

If there are any types of programs that I can download that would assist me in opening, unclocking ports, or anything of that nature, it would be grea.

Or if there is a general way of editing the ports through dos, or any other way in windows, manually, please let me know.

The ports that he needs to unlock are:

COOP Ports:
------------------------------------------
TCP: 6668, 40000-42999
UDP: 9102 (input/output)
UDP: 9103 (input/output)
UDP: 9106 (input/output)
UDP: 9107 (input/output)
UDP: 41000 (output)
UDP: 44000 (output)
UDP: 45000 - 45001 (input/output)


Ubi.com (and Versus) Compatibility
------------------------------------------
Problems with Firewalls : If you have a firewall on your Internet connection,
the following ports should be open (consult your firewall documentation):

TCP 40000 to 43000 included
UDP 44000 in input/output
UDP 45000 in input/output
UDP 45001 in input/output
UDP 7776 in input/output
UDP 8888 and the next three ones in input/output
UDP 8878 in input/output


If anyone can give me a general idea of how to help him, it would be much apprecited.

He shoud try simply turning off windows firewall when he is gaming.

Its very easy,, He probably wouldn't have to worry about it if he had UPNP (universal plug and play) enabled but anyway its page 58 of this manual.
