Note: An added benefit of Port Triggering is you do not need to worry about ip addresses.
When using port triggering with applications that don't make outbound
connections you can use my free

Step 1.
Open your favorite web browser and input your routers ip address in the address bar.

In the "Trigger" enter the ports to be used as the trigger.
