How to configure SightSpeed to work with your home router or wireless gateway.
Typically most home routers will not require any additional configuration, but under some circumstances SightSpeed traffic may not be routed correctly through or between one or more home routers. In these cases, you can configure a port forwarding rule which will pass all SightSpeed traffic from the internet through the device to you computer.
If you have a home or small office (SOHO) Cable/DSL router that is not functioning correctly when you use SightSpeed, take a look at www.portforward.com, as they have documented several hundred different brands and models of home routers.
When following the instructions on how to set up a port-forwarding rule from www.portforward.com just remember that SightSpeed needs Port 9000 UDP forwarded to your computers internal IP address. If you plan on running SightSpeed on more than one computer on your home network, you will need to specify a unique port number for each computer in the Advanced Internet Connection Settings of SightSpeed, and create a corresponding port-forwarding rule for each as well.
D-Link Routers - Check to see if your D-link is running a so called Application Layer Gateway (ALG) for SIP or Session Initiation Protocol, which should be disabled. Log into the admin page of your router and go to Firewall Settings then uncheck "SIP".
