Answer 1

It's done on the firewall (or the router to the minimum) that is connecting your network to the internet. If you are usng a service provider, check with him.

Answer 2

Hi

this various from model to model and what application you want to use.

first find the list of port nos to be opened and type [TCP or UDP]

if you have too many to do, then the best option is to keep your computer in the DMZ zone of your router, this will open all the ports fror your computer...

Thanks
