hey guys, ive recently purchased the whole sky package with broadband included aswell. They have given me a router aswell for free and i was wondering if anyone knew if they were any port forwarding options in the router settings as I cant seem to find any?
cheers

You need to set up a new service first. Then add it to the firewall rules.

Sky do block several things in the router control panel so some things may not forward as you owuld expect them to. for example, you cannot access an internal server using the external IP

thats where the windows hosts file comes in handy
