•Open your browser and type in the address to your router (usually 192.168.0.1) in the address field and login.
 
•Go to Advanced and click on Virtual Server.  Depending on the firmware version, you might only be able to enter a name, IP and port.  Other versions allow you to specify which protocol to forward. If your screen does not look like this, try updating your firmware.  Make sure you forward TCP and UDP (or select Both).

 
•Enter any port over 1024 into both Private and Public port.
 
•Enter your computer's local IP into Private IP. (Win 9x: Start > Run > winipcfg | Win 2k/XP: Start > Run > cmd /k ipconfig /all )
 
•Your computer may get different IPs from your router over time. When this happens, active mode will no longer work. To prevent this from happening, set up the router to assign your computer the same IP each time based on your network cards (NIC) MAC address.   Go to Home and then click on DHCP.

 
•Enter in your NIC MAC address, which can be found when you got your computers local IP, seen in step #4.  Make sure to have the router assign the same IP address your computer currently it using.
 
•In DC++ settings, enter your current external IP (can be found here) and the port you chose to forward.
 
•You may have to reboot your router for the changes to take effect. If you can search and download files, you have configured it successfully.

Thanks to Lundis for the screenshots.

•Open your browser and type the router's IP (usually 192.168.0.1) in the address field, then login to configure the router (if you have forgotten the password, check the manual on how to reset the router to default username/password).
•Go to Advanced Features.
•Choose Open Ports.
•Choose an available number (NEVER 1 or 2, these are used by the router for specific application configuration).
•Check Enable Open Ports and enter the IP for the computer running DC or click Choose PC to point it out. Continue to enter the correct port number; the port number is the same as the one entered in DC.


•Finally, enter the router's IP address in the DC Settings dialog. This IP is found under 'System Management->Unit Status.' If you have a dynamic IP, you have to change the IP in DC every time the external IP changes.
•If you can search and download files, you have configured it successfully.

For all other D-Link models that are not listed in this FAQ, read D-Link guide to port forwarding.
