Hey, quick question—whenever I try to fire up Tungle, it keeps telling me my NAT type is blocking the connection. So, I headed over to the port forwarding settings and opened everything up exactly like the manual said, but even after logging in as a user, nothing's working. I'm totally stuck. Anyone got any advice or a fix? Thanks!

To get those ports open, you’re going to need a static IP address first http://www.pcwintech.com/simple-static-ip

Once you've got that IP set up, here is how you do it:
Go to the Control Panel -> Network and Internet -> then look under the Network and Sharing Center. On the right side, click "View network computers and devices" -> right-click your router icon -> hit Properties -> go to Settings and then click Add...

Service Description: just type in whatever name you want
Name or IP address of the commp...: this is where you put that static IP (mine is 192.168.1.150, but yours will be whatever you assigned using the software)
External port and Internal port: make sure they match—just use the specific number that Tungle is asking for

I set everything up, but when I run the test, it keeps saying "selected port is not open." Honestly, I’m at a total loss here. What else am I supposed to do?

This should do the trick. Just type cmd into the search bar, open up the Command Prompt, and then run ipconfig /all. Simple enough, right?
If your IPv4 address is showing up as 192.168.1.xxx (which is what you want), then you’ve definitely set a static IP. You'll just need to head into your router settings and open that port using the method I laid out above. Just a heads-up, though—make sure you aren't trying to open the wrong type? You have to be careful because there's a difference between UDP and TCP. Which one are you actually aiming for?

You’re totally right, I should've gone with UDP. Thanks for the heads-up!
