If your computer is hooked to the linksys what local Ip does it have?
Open a command window and type in ipconfig

Whats your IP that shows up there?

Gotcha. Well thanks a bunch, I was able to save settings. However, the initial intention was for me to open these ports to play an online game, yet even now with the ports open I am unable to login. I know this isn't really on topic, but i have been working all day just to get these damned ports open because support was terrible and now that they are finally open i will poop myself if there are more hoops i must jump through -.-

You only need to do port forwarding if you are hosting a game, not joining one,

So make sure  you dont have a firewall or anything blocking your game :wink:
