This program automatically manages UPnP/NAT-PMP port forwarding rules for using Moonlight over the Internet.

Instructions

  1. Install mish-1.3.msi on your home PC with GeForce Experience
  2. If you have previously created manual port forwarding entries for Moonlight, ensure UPnP is enabled and remove the manual entries from your router settings.
  3. Make sure the automatic configuration was successful by running "Moonlight Internet Streaming Tester" via the Start Menu.
  4. Confirm everything works by testing it from a different network. Testing connectivity with cellular data or tethering is a good option if you don't have a different network easily reachable.
    • If you've previously used Moonlight on the same network as your PC, it should connect automatically over the Internet if you're outside your house.
    • If it doesn't connect automatically or it's your first time connecting to this PC, type the address that is displayed on the tester's success dialog into the Add PC dialog of Moonlight.

Limitations

  • Port forwarding is limited to one GameStream PC per public IP address. This means you should only install this program on one PC on your network to avoid conflicts.

Changes in v1.3

  • Fix malformed UPnP requests that could cause issues with some routers
  • Fix port forwarding on certain buggy routers that don't handle NAT-PMP conflicts properly
  • Minor cosmetic improvements to logging, error messages, etc.
