Hey I really like this video, but I have a question. I want to host my own minecraft server on my PC via port 25565. I've read about it, and it said that it could be dangerous. Is there any way to secure it?
@@timgrh2050 Check out his video about a DMZ. Put your server outside of your actual home network
@@brendan2240 oh btw is it possible to port forward with ipv6?
wow it took you 3 year to find that router wifi.
What if two computers on the same network needed to use the HTTP protocol. When the router gets the IP address, and it has port 80 attached to it, how would it know which computer to send the information to?
No one explains and displays things better than you on the entire internet!!! Your videos are outstanding.
Thank you :)
that is certainly right! :) great videos and easy to understand
True
Please keep adding more videos. You’re are excepcional. Best video tutorial on the internet.
Totally agree... thank you so much!
Port forwarding explained in 9 mins. It’s been a mystery for 40 yrs. Great explanation.
Love the fact that not only you explain the terms " Port Forwarding " , you actually take a step further and talk about what a port actually is , and not assuming that all people have already known about it ! Please continue with the good work !
The best video about port forwarding. It put hard technical terms into simple worlds. Thank you for the wonderful video.
Thank you :)

PowerCert Animated Videos : Dear PowerCert Animated Videos , first of all thanks a lot for your videos . Learnt a lot from your videos and got job in Information security. I would like to request for Security + exam video similar to Network + and A+ . Besides why don’t you create course with materials and videos for different exams like udemy . I am pretty sure almost 10k will indeed buy those online courses and use your video and material for future references . Please reply .
Best explanation on port forwarding I've seen.
@@PowerCertAnimatedVideos but how we can decide which protocol we have to use? i.e TCP and Udp
I have watched ~10 of your videos and they're incredibly clear. You have a skill in breaking down the complex for the rest of us!
Thank you :)
your explanation is unparalleled and very lucid....these 9-10 minutes of nuggets are knowledge bombs which are exploding in my brain :) thanks a lottttt for these videos
Using the analogy of a phone switchboard is fantastic.
I was about to make this comment. Yes this is a great analogy.
I learnt more stuff about port forwarding in 9 mins than in my 3 hour class on port forwarding. You have a natural art of teaching well. I love your videos man. I can watch em all day long. Its just the way you teach it. Thank you for putting these informative and important stuff on YT and making them as simple as humanly possible!
Helps that he explains everything as it works in-situ, and the practical effects of it, making it very understandable by connecting to base concepts we tend to already know.
I can't stop watching these. Each one is something I already knew BUT it was refreshing, accurate and I learned that someone on TH-cam knows what they are doing in explaining shit.
Thanks
Well someone said "If you can't explain it to an 8 year old you probably don't understand it completely yourself".
This explanation is probably that good.
Loved it, wonderful analogy.
I can't get over how simple this was, yet how complicated everyone else made this!!! You rock!!!!!
I worked in IT for years and still love the animations and very clear explanations on your channel! The way I learned most of this in textbooks was not as clear
Helps when things are explained in practical terms, rather than allowed to be naturally obscure and daunting to learn.
I’m taking a paid course and I’m wondering as to why the paid course can’t make it this easy to understand?
Thank you for explaining!
same here lol these vids are brilliant. my course im doing just has a guy talking for 20 mins at a time and im falling asleep
Because best things in life are free
gp5 same here but I don’t pay for it. We study linux/windows in school and we needed port forwarding for vnc to connect to the remote core desktop
me too, i'm taking the google one, the bits and bytes os comuter networking, and i'm sick already from all that tricky quiz, a pain in the ass, and a guy talking and talking.. here in this channel i learn much more and free of charge.. i'll cancel my signature at coursera google
dude same!!! all these videos are maybe 5-7 min long and make it so simple to understand more than an entire semesters worth!!! my professors record themselves but when they talk they usually go down a rabbit hole smh and forget what they were talking about not to mention well at least my professors often talk like we got 25+ years of experience and knowledge under our belt like they do 🤦♂️
If there's #1 tutorial here in youtube about explanation of port forwarding, it could be this. Thanks for your time and effort on doing these.
Best video on port forwarding I’ve come across. No annoying channel intro, no stupid music, no silly gimmicks or comedy routines. Simple and straight to the point. Well done my friend.
in the marine corp we call a video like this breaking it down Barney style. Barney meaning the big purple dinosaur. Very good video, you break down confusing topics very well.
Rah Devil Dog!
Erreh
marines are dumb...you need to explain it to them that way...barney style....lol
I love it haha
I was think Barney fife...of Andy Griffen
I just wish you were around in the earlier days of the internet. Your videos are nothing short of brilliant!!
Thank you.
Thank you. The analogy of phone extension really did clear about the gist of port forwarding.
Dude, for visual learners these videos are simply amazing. Thank you.
It's one thing to have theory, but to see the purpose of all of the technical jargon we learn in Networking class demonstrated is a true blessing! Thank you for these videos.
I've watched three different videos that you have created, and have been impressed with how clear to understand your explanations are. I might also add that the animations contribute considerably to the understanding of the material. I've just subscribed to your channel. Thanks.
I have been unlucky enough to view quite a number of "presentations" concerning Remote Desktop connections and related material (such as Port Forwarding), but all of them left me so frustrated and full of questions due to their scattered, vague, inconsistent and low-quality info that they had to offer.
Your presentation was nothing short of a revelation to me concerning the issue of connecting two computers belonging to to different LANs using Remote Desktop.
I cannot really tell whether it is the clarity of your language, your grasp of the subject, the calm tone of your voice, the carefully prepared audio and video material or the sum total of all these factors that make your presentations fully understandable, complete and easily applicable in the real world.
You saved me tens of hours of trying to understand this issue in a hands-on manner and I cannot thank you enough for that.
Thank you very much for this professional-grade upload which, I am sure, has been key in setting up Remote Desktop connections for many people out there.
Two thumbs up for this top-notch work of yours.
Thank you for explaining it in a simple, clear way that laymen can understand instead of a pretentious, self-satisfied, gatekeeping way that assumes the viewer already knows certain things.
I always heard these terms (in your different courses) and you have made everything so simple. I feel like I know the internet and its corresponding pieces SO much better now!
I wish these videos were around about 20 years ago. It would have made my life a whole lot easier.
It is would had been saving us all from major headache back then!!!
Finally a clear and thorough explanation of Port Forwarding. Thanks so much, this was amazing!
I love when you say if your still confused here's another explanation and it clicks!! Thank you.
Excellent video ..... you made it so simple and easy to understand .... GREAT JOB - on of the best and most informative videos i have ever seen on youtube .....
You are the best teacher here on TH-cam. The way you simplified the things with explanation and animations make us more attentive to receive and grasp everything with immense interest. Thank you for taking time and putting efforts to create such content free of cost for us to learn.Not even premium courses provide such information in the same way as this.
In less than 10 minutes you completely demystified IP addresses and port numbers for me. Well done, and thank you!
Idk why I wasn't processing this concept at all, but this made it extremely straight forward and I was confusing myself for no reason. Ty good sir
Your videos take technology concepts that are often highly technical and difficult, and make them clear and accessible to learners. The value you provide to those of us who are seeking our first entrance into the IT profession or are early-career professionals still solidifying our knowledge and skills is absolutely immeasurable. I'm in the latter category, and with the experience I gain each day on the job combined with studying from amazing resources like the videos you provide, I am confident that in a few years I'll have the knowledge and skill to be absolutely unstoppable in the industry.
You do a great job. I hope you get money for these. Very Professional.
Though having years of hearing about Port Forwarding and getting a sense of what it is and how to set it up, I never felt comfortable about tackling it in my fancy router. In just a few minutes, you educated me to the point I am now confident I know what this is, why it is done, and how to do it. Thank You!
When I create a course that will have the students learn about port forwarding, I'll be using this video. Great work!
la noire game
You are genius. You have an art of teaching that a lot of people don't have. Brilliant work ! Please make more more videos !!
I love the way you explain the definition, concept, how it works. Your videos are incredibly easy to understand things. Thank you very much
I feel like the luckiest person in the world after finding your channel. Thank you so much for your contribution! Seriously amazing!
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. My son is learning about networking at school and your videos are helping him to understand how things work.
A very good video for beginners. In many occasions, these kind of technical explanations are done by experts who would assume their readers to already know the most fundamental concepts, leaving a lot of question marks for those who want to understand fully. But this is so well done that you understand the concepts quite thoroughly.
After alllllll the reading that I've done, and video's that I've seen. Port forwarding has never been made so clear for me. Not even 10 minutes, and I understand now. Thank you!!! I've been watching your video's an hour non stop. I had to sub. I just can't believe that your video's are this short, and straight to the heart of the matter. Every one of them that I've watched!!!!! The absolute best!!!
Your channel is hands down the best when it comes to explaining basic networking
well precise explanation with example :)
.. I actually didn't really understand whats port forwarding before watching this video..thank you
I've been watching these video since one showed up in my YT feed a couple of weeks ago. These are really informative. I've been involved in IP networking at a development level for over 20 years and I learn bits and pieces from these videos that I've missed over the years. Well done. I look forward to watching more.
Thanks :)
These videos are the biggest factor that helped me get my CompTIA certifications. Outstanding explanations and graphics!
I'm in college and I find your videos so helpful. Thanks!
Whoa 😲, this video was EXTREMELY Helpful and well explained in simplicity.
This does do a very nice job of explaining the process of port forwarding in a "friendly" environment. Next, we should address a more important issue, namely what to do with port forwarding over the open internet which is not populated by "friends" but by people whose sole purpose is to steal information and leave undetected. Microsoft products in their default configuration are often setup for indiscriminate sharing, a connection not desired over the open internet.
I more than appreciate the completeness of your abilities in teaching. In a dream world we could clone you and hire you in all educational institutions. Thank you for your effort and time. Best wishes.
Incredible. totally accurate explanation. Told by someone that really knows what they are talking about, and can explain it, and give full comprehension of the subject to a layman. Thank you Sir. Obviously you are the king of port forwarding.
My very first subscription on TH-cam is your channel !!
You explain the topics so good. I really appreciate your work. Our professor's in college have confused us so much :(
I learnt more in a single youtube video than what I studied in class..
Same Here.
Before going thru your video, i went thru many other videos and articles. But yours was the best possible explanation
I'm recommending your videos to all our new technicians. I think you need to do a video that explains in detail what a port is a reserved port vs a Dynamic port common ports and... Love love love your content very well done!
I have never understood what port forwarding actually does, but now I know, thanks! Very useful video!
Most informative and helpful explaining a concept I had a difficult time understanding.. Thank you
Your channels presents complex solutions in an uncomplicated way.
*HENCE SIMPLICITY IS THE ULTIMATE SOPHISTICATION*
OMG THIS IS WHAT I NEEDED - I have been staring at Kubernetes trying to understand some abstractions, and this video just filled in a major gap. Thank you!
oh my god! After so many years of confused Port Forwarding topic for me, your Telephone example NAILED IT! It's very very very clear to me now. Thanks a ton! Have watched all your videos in a single day. You deserve to be subscribed and supported. You break very difficult thing in the simplest way that even a newborn baby can understand.
Love from India. :)
There is no words can describe this brilliant job .the simulation is more than perfect with amazing consistence with the explanation really You are genius . Thank you so much for this informative video looking forward to see more.
Thank you :)
Wow, your channel deserves more views and subs. Thank you so much for all your videos. I already know most of the stuff, but it's still fun watching your videos because you explain the concepts so well!
Kudos.
This is the most absolutely free things I came across online! Thanks for innovation am forever blessed to have those like you who are willing to share freely.
Thank you! I was struggling to understand portforwarding. Now I think I got it.
The animations/diagrams and slow explanation is so helpful T__T
Thank you. :)
the best port forwarding information.
Thanks!
Great video. Ive watched several videos and felt like a dummy. I watched your video once and it all clicked. Thank you!
these videos are seriously helping me grow so much in my new job. thank you! i enjoy how deep you dive into the topics.
Well done. I liked your phone/extension analogy.
.
I would actually binge watch your videos XD
haha, thanks.
finally, someone who can explain ports and port forwarding in plain English with a great analogy!
These videos are the future of IT Education. Well done. Thanks.
The people who disliked the video are probably operating their WiFi from a toaster
Awesome the phone illustration helped thanks
Your animations are just great and you explain it very clearly with great examples!!!
Thank you very much!!!
I am gaining knowledge from your channel much more from my college, thumps up
Best Port Forwarding Intro Video I've ever seen. Still one question: must the internal port always be identical with the external ones? For security issues, usual ports exposure should not be so safe from productive environment users. What is the solution ? Thanks~!
i don't skip the youtube ad :)
Thank you for a clear concise and entertaining description of Port Forwarding. Will now look forward to other videos on TH-cam. Great job.
Best explanations on the internet. you are doing a really amazing job. Clear explanations and animations help to understand the entire concept in a few minutes video. 👍🏼
Awesome channel on TH-cam, I watched all video's, keep going on and upload some more videos on ccna
Thanks :)
If teachers are be like you.... any one can learn... whatever the topic.
You are the best teacher/ instructor I have ever seen. Thank you for your kindness to the people.
Best IT channel on TH-cam
I've been port forwarding for nearly 20 years cause the internet blog forums tell me to for a game to work. Never understood what it was doing. Now I do. Great video!
You are the best
4:35 Now I know when I call some phone company, I has to press 1 or 2 or 3, in order to move on the call.
This series of networking videos are the best I have seen. Thank you.
Dude....You are the greatest. You are the only video I can find that gets to the point clearly and explains minutiae.
One of the best on the Net Amazing job Sir Well done.I'm training with your Network+ video and wanted to know if the 3h46:50 on the youtube is the completed course posted. Once again Thanks.
Yes it is. But don't rely on just 1 source to study. Get a good book too.
PowerCert Animated Videos thanks for the replies. Yes I agree I got 3 books including Mike Meyers Network + N10-006
Excellent video keep it up
God bless you
This is brilliant, I wanted to get more comfortable with networking for a long time now, and this channel has just the right videos for me. Subscribed! Thank you!
Watched all your vids in 2 days
Doesnt the router forward using both a ip and port? The example makes it seem like only the port number is used to connect to device but its port and ip of device that initiated the request. This would give the idea that everyones internet will be blocked because someone assigned port 80 to their device
I understand the part where you have to enter to the port number to bypasss the firewall. but, where does the Public IP number 66.94.34.13 number come from? And how do I find this ip number?
That's just a generic IP address I made up. If you want to find your IP address, go to www.ipchicken.com and that will tell you your IP address.
thank you
I'm subscribed.. Clear explanations and the animations brought it all together.
Thanks
Thank you for making it so easy to understand. No one does it better. The animation is outstanding.
Well, I've got a question .... what if two computers💻,💻 which both have port 80, have their entries in the port forwarding table with the same port number although different IP addresses...then which computer is the router going to forward the packet to?
To the computer with matching IP address obviously.
Excellent animations, good comparison to companies departments. But: you should at least mention, that port forwarding can be a highly dangerous thing! Do not hide the dark force of internet!
One of the best technical video made simple I have seen. Quote from Albert Einstein - " If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough." Great video. God bless you. Thanks
Your videos are the best ones in the whole internet! My gratitude for your work! You are a hero! Hugs From Brazil!
So @2:38 you show that 192.168.1.1 is the *internal* router IP address...
...but @4:09 you all of the sudden show a completely different router IP address. I assume this is the *external* IP address that your ISP provided you? The IP address that the Internet sees? I wouldn't have been able to guess that without having been taught it before. Newbies would be lost.
It's also confusing that @2:56 you call the *internal* router IP address simply the "IP address of the router" when it's REALLY important in this context to distinguish that it's the *internal* IP (as opposed to the *external* one shown @4:09).
As other is pointing out, these videos are great for refreshing knowledge and etc. I believe these videos are great for visually understanding the material that you read. You would not try and gain CCNA cert by watching these videos only.
Thank you so much for your videos. Your knowledge, enunciation/pace, graphics, etc. are immaculate!
