If your router has separate options for "internal port" and "external port", you should set them to the same values. For example, your port forward for TCP 47989 would be set as internal port 47989 and external port 47989.
To verify the basic port forwarding was done correctly, visit http://www.canyouseeme.org/ and test port 47984 and 47989. If port forwarding is working, they should both report "Success" when you test them. The other ports are only active during streaming, so the only way to test them is via Moonlight.

If Moonlight already found your gaming PC automatically while on the same network, it should connect to your PC over the Internet without any additional steps. If you're not on the same network as your PC, go to http://www.whatsmyip.org/ from your gaming PC, then enter the IP address you get there into Moonlight. If you don't get an error, you should be all set.

This step is only required if you do not have the [Moonlight Internet Hosting Tool](https://github.com/moonlight-stream/Internet-Streaming-Helper/releases) already installed.
3. If Moonlight already found your gaming PC automatically while on the same network, it should connect to your PC over IPv6 without any additional steps. If you haven't already paired to your gaming PC while on the same network, click Add PC and type the IPv6 address of your host gaming PC.
3. If your router has an IPv6 firewall, you may need to create IPv6 firewall rules on your router to allow TCP ports 47984-48010 and UDP ports 47998-48010 through the firewall. The GameStream IPv6 Forwarder will create the rules for you if possible, but not many routers support this feature. If your IPv6 Moonlight connection is failing, this is most likely the reason.
