Port Forwarding on Asus RT-AC3200 Router

Are you looking forward to knowing how you can do port forwarding on Asus RT-AC3200 Router? If yes, then you must follow the step by step procedure given below. 

1) Create a Static IP Address of Your Device

Static IP address has a lot of significance in the port forwarding process. Just like you need one particular phone number on which you can get a call when someone wishes to contact you. Likewise, your computer system or laptop needs a static IP address on which you can receive traffic from your Asus RT-AC3200. 

The default settings are such that whenever your device restarts it gets a new IP address. So, the foremost thing that is required to be done is to assign a static IP address to the device, which is requesting port forwarding from your Asus router. 

2) Enter the IP Address in the Location Bar of your Web Browser

Enter Asus RT-AC3200 router IP address in the address bar of your web browser. The IP address of your router is 192.168.1.1. 

3) Enter the Username and Password in the Admin Panel

After entering the IP address in the location bar of your web browser, the Admin Panel of your Asus router will open up before you. There, you are required to enter the username and password in the two blank fields that you see before you.

If you are not able to login after entering the username and password, then that means you have entered the wrong details. If such a thing happens, then you can fix that problem by holding and pressing the reset button for 15 seconds. Enter the credentials one more time and maybe this time you will be able to login. 

4) Go to the Port Forwarding Section

Now that you have entered the homepage of your Asus router.  Carry out the steps stated below in the bulleted points. This is what you are required to do next. The steps that you have to follow are given below.

  • Search for the network map and then select it. 
  • Search for the Wide Area Network that is given at the left of your Menu bar and select it. 
  • Start looking for port forwarding or virtual server and then select it. 

Tip: In order to generate traffic on your device, you must make a new rule of port forwarding on your Asus router. This is going to be the final step in the process of port forwarding.

5) Make a New Rule of Port Forwarding

In order to create a new rule of port forwarding, these are the steps that you need to follow

  • First of all, click on the button of Create or Add New for creating a new rule of port forwarding on your Asus RT-AC3200 router. 
  • After that, you are required to enter the name of your program for example, Microsoft, PlayStation 2 and XBOX One. This is solely for your reference. 
  • After that, you must enter the static IP address of your device that you created in the first step of this entire process. 
  • Now, you need to enter the port that you wish to forward. 
  • Select UDP/TCP on your Asus router. 
  • If you see the section of external IP addresses, then enter 0.0.0.0 there. 
  • Please ensure that the checkbox is chosen if it is made available on your router. 
  • Select save after completing the entire process. 

So, these are all the necessary steps that you are required to carry out for enabling port forwarding on your Asus router. You can verify whether you have performed the steps properly or not by performing the port forwarding tests. 

6) Test the Entries of Port Forwarding

After creating port forwarding on your router device, the next thing that you need to do is to test it.  To check the port forwarding, you can use the online tools of port checking. 

So, these are all the steps that you need to perform in order to swetup port forwarding on Asus RT-AC3200 Router.
