Port Forwarding on the router

The Bascom app and the Bascom client use port 9000 to establish a connection. Depending on the configuration, this port may first have to be released. The procedure is described for the three most used routers. Is your router manufacturer not listed? Please contact the manufacturer's support and ask about the procedure for port release of your device. If your router has separate forwarding options for IPv4 and IPv6 please make sure to add it for both protocols.
