I had this ingenious idea last night (I'm sure some people already know this)
Since I don't know the password to my router, I can't forward ports, so people can't connect to me on games I host on my PC :(
So last night this random idea popped into my head. I tried it, and WHAT DO YOU KNOW!? IT WORKED!
Step 1:
Get µTorrent.
Step 2:
- Go to Options > Preferences > Connection
- Type the port you want to forward in the box that says 'Port used for incoming Connections'
- Press OK and you're done!
This picture shows the port used for Minecraft
To get the IP other people will connect to, go to http://whatismyip.com and copy the IP adress, and add :#### (Port number) on the end.
Enjoy! Extremely useful and easy
