I have been trying to run the SNES emulator, Zsne,s using its netplay
feature via zbattle.net
Unfortunatly i cant get it to work doing this and i have been told its because
of my router.
I have never had this problem before so im unsure as exactly what to do.
My router is a D-link DI-614+
According to zbattle.net
If you are using a router you need to access its configuration page (this is usually done by typing http://192.168.0.1 in your browser). In the port forwarding section of the router configuration page, you need to forward UDP port 7845 (for ZSNES) and TCP port 4000 (for zbattle.net downloading) to your LAN IP. For more information on how this is done, please consult your router manual.
If you are using a firewall you need to allow incoming/outgoing UDP port 7845 (for ZSNES), outgoing TCP port 4398 (to connect to the zbattle.net server), and incoming TCP port 4000 (for zbattle.net downloading). For more information on how this is done, please consult your firewall software documentation.

I dont have the firewall enabled on this router (i think)
This is what i have found in my router settings
Virtual Server
Virtual Server is used to allow Internet users access to LAN services.
Name
Private IP
Protocol Type TCP UDP Both
Private Port
Public Port
Is this the right place to enter the detail? if so do i put the port number 7845 in both the private and public? and what is the private IP? is it my computer on the network? or the IP i get from my ISP?
other things listed just show 0.0.0.0

Also i have found this,
Special Application
Special Application is used to run applications that require multiple connections.
Enabled Disabled
Name
Trigger Port -
Trigger Type TCP UDP Both
Public Port
Public Type TCP UDP Both
--------
which of the two am i supposed to use and if its the second do i put the port number in both the trigger and public?

I cant easily test it working so i cant really hack my way through it
