Dovado UMR_Broadband routers include a very basic firewall that helps protect your home network from unwanted access from the internet. Since this firewall blocks incoming connections you may need to open a port through it for certain games and applications. To do this, you will have to forward the port with a process called Port Forwarding. You may follow the below guide to setup Port Forwarding on the Dovado router.

Now we are going to login to your Dovado UMR_Broadband router. Your router has a web interface, so you will log in to it using your web browser. This can be either Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Edge. It usually does not matter which browser you choose to use.
1- Open up your web browser and find the address bar.
2- The address bar has 192.168.0.1 in it. Just replace all of that with the IP address of your Dovado UMR_Broadband router. Your router's IP address can also be referred to as your computer's default gateway.
By default, the IP address is set to 192.168.0.1
3- After entering the IP address of your router you can simply press enter.
