How to Configure a Port for US Robotics USR9111
Configuring ports for routers, specifically the US Robotics USR9111, allows programs and applications to bypass a router's built-in firewall. However, by bypassing this firewall, these selected programs and applications will gain entry to your network and the resources provided. Any of the changes you wish to make can be completed in the router's web-based configuration interface. Ensure that you only allow trusted programs access to the Internet and your network resources.
