damn ports wont get fowarded :(

[Mr. Elmo]

im using a dlink 604 and im tring to foward some ports for bt 6881 and it doesnt work.

i got to http://192.168.0.1 > advance>virtual server> add the info (the name, my lan ip, choose tcp, enter in 6881> check that enable box and the "always" box and "apply"

but than i go to pcflank and test the port, it shows it as close

im trying to foward the port for kazaa too, 32656 but it doesnt seem to work

i tried rebooting the modem too

u reboot the router.

are u forwarding it to the right ip adress? (your computer) and also make sure your computer is on a static ip otherwise everytime it changes u need to forward the ports again.

damn rossco...some quick responding time ....but yea, i fowarded to the right ip, my lan ip (command promt, ipconfig, the thing it says in there) hmm i have it on dynamic ip right now maybe i need to ge change it

[tesco]

k change it to static.

umm...u restarted the router? that's all there is to it...should be working...

[Mr. Elmo]

umm...u restarted the router? that's all there is to it...should be working...

but its not

i tried changing it to static ip, and it asked for the ip my isp provided me, where would i go find this?

It's the IP that the router gives to your machine. Just type in 192.168.8.25 and see what happens.
