I set up Port Forwarding in my router's firewall for these particular
port requests. At least I think I got it right. The messages about
incoming TCP connections being blocked have gone away, but now I'm
getting the messages shown below. Any idea what to do about them, if
anything?
Also, Folder share says it is online, but it has stopped saying
"behind NAT". Is that to be expected since I changed the port
filtering rules?
