zbattle.net is an amazing role-playing game that involves jumping, shooting enemies, and climbing ladders. But, you might run into network interruption a lot if you are not opening ports for zbattle.net on your routers. Find out how to port forward zbattle.net on multiple routers. 

How to Port Forward Firewall 

Ports are like virtual doors that your computer uses to communicate with other computers or devices. In order for somebody on the outside to get through those doors, you have to open them up by port forwarding. If you’re not familiar with port forwarding, don’t worry! It’s actually a pretty simple process. Just follow these steps and you’ll be up and running in no time.

  1. Find your router’s IP address.
  2. Log into your router.
  3. Find the port forwarding section. This is usually under a heading like “Applications & Gaming,” “Advanced,” or “Port Forwarding/NAT.”
  4. Create a new port forwarding rule.
  5. Enter the information for your rule.
  6. Save your changes.

And that’s it! Now anyone who wants to connect to your computer or device will be able to do so by connecting to the IP address you specified in step 4.

Requirements to Port Forward zbattle.net

Just before you begin with the process of port forwarding, make sure you have the following things:

  • Downloaded and installed the zbattle.net server software package hosted.
  • The IP address of your router.
  • IP address of your gaming device.
  • TCP and UDP ports of zbattle.net for your gaming device as mentioned in the section below.

Now that you have the above details noted down, you can move to the next stage of zbattle.net port forwarding:

  • On your web browser address bar, type your router’s IP Address/Default Gateway.
  • Log in with your router’s credentials (username and password) to view your router’s firmware settings.
  • Navigate to the port forwarding section of your router.
  • Click on Port Forwarding.
  • Enter the IP address of your gaming device in your router in the correct box.
  • Put the TCP and UDP ports of zbattle.net Server in the boxes in your router. The default zbattle.net port number is 4000. And then click the apply button.
  • And you’re done. Restart your router to let the changes take effect.
  • Once your changes take effect, now you can host a zbattle.net server and let your friends connect to it as well. To let them connect to it, you need to provide them the hostname you are using, along with the port number. For example, ‘hostname.domain.com:25565’.

What if your ISP performs CGNAT? 

Most ISPs perform CGNAT (Carrier-grade Network Address Translation) to conserve bandwidth and assign a single IP address to multiple users connected to the same internet network. However, CGNAT makes it difficult for you to open ports on the router. 

To get around the CGNAT issue, you can use the Port Forwarding add-on to bypass this problem and port forward routers without hassle. Here’s more information on how to use PureVPN’s Port Forwarding add-on and bypass CGNAT in a few clicks.

Battle.net Authenticator 

The Battle.net Authenticator is an important tool that can help keep your account safe. It’s a small, physical device that attaches to your keychain. When you enter your password, the Authenticator generates a code that you also need to log in. This makes it much harder for someone to guess your password and get into your account.

If you’re thinking about getting an Authenticator, here are a few things to keep in mind:

  1. The Authenticator is free. You can get one by going to the Battle.net Shop.
  2. The Authenticator only works with certain types of accounts. Right now, it works with World of Warcraft, StarCraft II, and Diablo III accounts.
  3. You can only have one Authenticator attached to an account at a time.
  4. The Authenticator can be a little bit tricky to use at first, but you’ll get the hang of it after a while.
