    Re: dlink router help

    The router is telling the truth. How would it know which computer to send a packet to that came in on a given port? It wouldn't

    What ports are you trying to forward and for what purpose, may be able to setup different ports for the 2 PCs to use.

    Re: dlink router help

    You shouldn't normally have to forward ports on a router just to play a game. You should find that the games just work (unless you are trying to run servers of course).

    Re: dlink router help

    you can't send them to both computers at the same time, you'd need to decide which computer you wanna host from and set it up accordingly.
