- vira28 6y agoPerfect. Thanks. That was my doubt. Will try it out.
- WrtCdEvrydy 6y agoYeah, most routers have a predefined list of "Applications" but you can add a custom application with custom port. Back in the day, DynDNS actually allowed the IP to DNS as a free service.
- Thorrez 6y agoOh, I forgot to mention HTTP uses TCP port 80, and HTTPS uses TCP port 443.
