Question Port Question?

I have a Linksys 4 port wired router (model#NR401)I went through all the basic and advanced settings and cant find where you open ports at. I want to open two port #'s 6699 and 6257 for a program im playing with. Any clue how to do it would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Linksys calls it port forwarding. You have to forward the ports to the local IP address of the computer you need to use those ports on. You will probably want to assign that computer a static IP.
