  2. Go to Applications & Gaming. Subsection Port Range Forwarding

  3. Type in a single port for the Start to and End. Select Both for the Protocol.
  4. Type in your local IP address. (Win 9x: Start > Run > winipcfg | Win 2k/XP: Start > Run > "cmd /k ipconfig /all" [without the ""])
  5. In DC++ settings, enter your current external IP (can be found here) and the port you chose to forward.
  6. If you can search and download files you have configured it successfully.
