Unblocking A Port

I was wondering if somebody can help me out by telling me how to unblock Port 5900

I have

Windows XP Home
Service Pack 2
SureWest DSL

Thanks

 

Are you behind a router?

 

Nope unless the dsl modem has a built in router

 

if you can aim me i will help you h2 snobird

 

put i this - 192.168.0.1
then put in your username and password you set on your modem when you set it up, if you didnt put a password on it will be something like username:admin, passwordassword.

Then go to advanced settings, locate port forwarding and put in the port you want unblocked.

 

im having the same problem but, im coming from a router like my connection is branched from arouter do i have to go onto my moms pc or can i do it on mine?

 

You should be able to open ports on your router settings
