Port Forwarding Breakdown
This article contains information relating to Superloop's current network configuration on Port Blocking and Port Forwarding.
What is port forwarding and blocking?
Port forwarding is a technique that is used to allow external devices access to computers services on private networks. It does this by mapping an external port to an internal IP address and port.

Does Superloop Block or restrict any ports?
Superloop does not block any ports at an Internet Service Provider (ISP) level.
As port forwarding is not crucial in providing an internet service to the property, level 1 Superloop technical support agents in the contact centre are not trained to manage port forward queries.
We’d suggest getting some help from a IT Networking professional, or locating some information online regarding forwarding ports.
