NOTE: If the port is open you will use the Remote IP Address you get from the port checker tool. However you will need to type it in as follows via web browser https://ipaddress:port number, [eg. if your ip address is 74.96.36.98 and your port is 8000 than it should look like this when you type it into your web browser https://74.96.36.98:8000.%5D
