How do I Port Forward my modem?

Question

Hello, I'm using a "PCI SoftV92 Data Fax Modem with SmartCP"

At the moment I am trying to find out how to portforward it, can anyone please help?

It will be greatly appreciated.

Well, modems don't need port forwarding!  Port forwards allow a router to pass a Public IP  to a Nat or Private IP behind them, with a modem you computer should get a Public IP directly making port forwarding unnecessary.  With dialup modems there isn't much needed to work.

As a footnote many games and other items that call for port forwarding won't work effectively unless a broadband line is used - thus the need for a router and port forwards.
