To get around the CGNAT issue, you can use the Port Forwarding add-on to bypass this problem and port forward routers without hassle.

A secure way to open all ports

To most people, port forwarding is quite a demanding task. For starters, every router has a different console, which often makes it difficult to navigate to specific settings.

Secondly, you won’t always be able to open Lineage ports on your router if your ISP restricts the ports. Yes, you heard that right! ISPs are notorious for blocking ports due to security reasons. If ISP isn’t the reason behind a blocked port, then perhaps it could be your operating system’s firewall.

Well, you can eliminate all these problems and enjoy smooth online gaming on all your desired systems with PureVPN’s Port Forwarding add-on. Through the port forwarding add-on, you can allow all ports, disallow all ports, and allow specific ports.

Frequently asked questions

How to port forward routers?

Routers use a protocol called port forwarding to allow multiple devices to connect to the internet using a single public IP address. Routers use port numbers to identify which service a device is using. When you want to access a service on a device from the internet, you need to tell your router which port number to use to reach that device.

To forward a port on your router, follow these steps:

1. Open your web browser and navigate to your router’s configuration page.

2. Find the port forwarding section of your router’s configuration page.

3. In the port forwarding section, create a new entry for the service you want to access.

4. In the entry, specify the public IP address of the device you want to reach, along with the port number you want to use to reach it.

5. Save your changes and exit your router’s configuration page.
