Hello,
Your Huawei EchoLife HS8145C router protects your home network by limiting incoming connections from the internet. Sometimes it is necessary to unblock some of those connections like when you want to create a direct connection for gaming, use a specific application, or set up a new device on your network. This process is called forwarding or opening a port. In your Huawei EchoLife HS8145C router you many need to open a port which means assigning a port number or set of port numbers to a specific IP address. This routes the incoming data to the correct device on your network.
The following steps will show you how to open ports on the Huawei EchoLife HS8145C router:
1- Setup a static IP address on the device or computer you are forwarding these ports to.
2- Go ahead and log in to your Huawei EchoLife HS8145C router.
3- Make your way to the Port Mapping section of the Huawei EchoLife HS8145C router.
4- Create a Port Mapping entry.
Thanks
