Port forwarding
Zultrax P2P needs to have access to the internet. In order to make optimal use of your connection Zultrax P2P needs to be capable of making outgoing connections and accepting incoming connections.
For the outgoing connections no special action is needed. For allowing incoming connections your router needs to be instructed to forward a port. For your Conceptronic C54BRS4 router follow the steps below to do so.

Other programs
We list here the steps needed to forward a port for Zultrax P2P. There are other programs (on-line games, file sharing and others) that also need port forwarding. Port forwarding is simular for all programs, only the port number is different. If you need to forward a port for another program than Zultrax P2P and you know the port number, use the steps below with that port number and it will work out fine.

In the next steps we will configure your router in such a way that the router allows Zultrax P2P to accept incoming connections. For this we need first to look up the port number used by Zultrax P2P. By default this port number is set to 6346 but it could be that you changed this number.
Zultrax P2P can help you to find the port number. In the menu tools choose system info. This will display a page of information with various details about the program amonst which port. Write the given number for port down, you'll need it later.

Your Conceptronic C54BRS4 router is configured now. You forwarded a port for Zultrax P2P. You can start Zultrax P2P and you will see incoming connections coming up. This might be not immediatly after start up but within minutes you should see at least some incoming connections. The program will adapt itself to the new configuration.
In case you still don't have incoming connections, perhaps you also have firewall software installed that needs configuration. For that see
the Firewalls/Routers page
, the info about firewall software is somewhere at the bottom of that page.
