i didnt know if this belong in hardware or internetworld so i posted both.
ok, i got this router for a couple months now...everything was fine until i wanted to add some new ports today for my app...DC++ and Azerus. i went to my setup page or w/e it is > advance > virtual server than add the stuff...but when i go to pcflank.com and check those ports i just added, it says closed.
anybody have a solution
do u have a software firewall or windows xp firewall? disable them.
Don't know if it is the same on that router, but on mine you have to save and reboot before new virtual server ports become active.
no software firewall (yet) and i've tried rebooting mine and it didnt work....i feel like throwing this thing out the window. :angry: :angry: :angry: :01: :01: :01:
did u set them to send to YOUR IP adress? and turn off DHCP on your computer, make the ip static, that way u don't have to keep port forwarding when ur ip changes. ;)
here is an example of how i setup my router to forward ports 6881-6999 to my computer which has a static ip of 192.168.0.2:
