For those that are behind a NAT and don't know how to do port forwarding on 8333 port. I have created a little Windows command line tool to do it automatically.

Huh What is the purpose of this tool? All it does is use UPnP to tell the router to forward port 8333, which is completely useless since Bitcoin Core automatically does this already. If Bitcoin Core can't forward the port by itself (usually because the router doesn't support UPnP), neither can your tool.

I was thinking this earlier today when I read it... lol. Even if your router doesn't support UPnP it takes less than 5 seconds to port forward.
