gamehead200 Posted October 8, 2002 Share Posted October 8, 2002 I have a Linksys DSL Router with a firewall included with it (Built-in to router).

Drewdatrip Posted October 9, 2002 Share Posted October 9, 2002 Well make sure you diesignate the correct port in the router, that the ftp app is using, make it tcp, and foward it to yoyur computers IP, then enable it..=Drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 9, 2002 Share Posted October 9, 2002 My Microsoft Wireless networking base, is also a wireless router.My port forwarding works...Here is what yours should look like, well, at least the fTp linePrivate IP= Your network address IP (ex: 192.168.0.1)---------------------------------------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThA_FiLeR Posted October 9, 2002 Share Posted October 9, 2002 No, because I had those ports in it for a hile but they never worked (only 50%) and when I updated my firmware it started working again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamehead200 Posted October 9, 2002 Author Share Posted October 9, 2002 I tried using ports 21 and 80 for FTP and HTTP. But it still doesn't forward to my private IP. Any more ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koala6 Posted October 19, 2002 Share Posted October 19, 2002 Hi gamehead200I had the same probs with my linksys router. I've found the following way only to make the things work :Look at the advanced config menu under the toppic "DMZ Host" and enter the IP of your FTP Server here (comment of linksys :This feature sets a local user to be exposed to the Internet. Any user on the Internet can access in/out data from the DMZ host. Enable the feature as you wish to use special-purpose service). So when you use this feature, be shure to have a firewall installed on your FTP machine and make the port 21 available !Oh... and another tip : The Linksys Routers are available at 192.168.1.xxx. Be shure to have your local network in the same address range (192.168.1.xxx with a Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0)Koala6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamehead200 Posted October 19, 2002 Author Share Posted October 19, 2002 Thanx Koala. I'll try that later, but for now, I'll stick with my web server. http://joker.servehttp.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
