Port forwarding to multiple devices

Go to solution

Hi BT Community,

I am trying to setup port forwarding for Modern Warfare to both my PC and my Xbox. The rules are working fine for the PC but when I try and add an additional rule for the Xbox I am getting this error. It seems I am unable to add the Xbox device to the existing rule nor can I create a new rule, which is somewhat of a limitation of the router.

I fear the answer to this question is the home hub doesn't support this feature, but thought I would check here before replacing the hardware. 

Thanks.

It's not a question of the hub not supporting it, you can't forward the same ports to more than one device. The whole point of port forwarding is to direct incoming packets to the correct device.
