Richard Jacks 828214 Posted February 10, 2005 at 10:19 PM Posted February 10, 2005 at 10:19 PM When I am trying to connect SB my port magic program says that I have run out of router ports for the program-so it never finds the connection. I have DSL through a wireless broadband router-how can I solve this? Thanks! RIchard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Linksys WRT54G router I will try the troubleshooter. Thanks! Richard Richard, I have this exact same router. If you need to know what things need to be forwarded to where, let me know, and I'll get you what I have configured. BL.

Richard Jacks 828214 Posted February 13, 2005 at 02:19 AM Author Posted February 13, 2005 at 02:19 AM I have it working now-at least to some degree...I contacted Linsys through their live chat and they talked me through a few changes-I am not having any problems with ports now but I am not able to see traffic in fs9- I am guessing that's another problem and not [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ociated with the Linksys router.

Brad Littlejohn Posted February 13, 2005 at 08:16 AM Posted February 13, 2005 at 08:16 AM Playing catch up on this thread. Here is what I have set up on my WRT54G router. First, the firewall is enabled, so I don't have to worry about it on my windows machine. By default in the setup section, Linksys uses the 192.168.1.x/32 private IP address block, with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. What this means, is that you should be able to use any IP address outside of the address of the router, 192.168.1.0 (network address block), and 192.168.1.255 (broadcast). By default, 192.168.1.1 is set up for the router's address. Addresses higher than 192.168.1.100 are automatically set for DHCP. Any address lower than .99 could be used for static IP addresses in your private network You will need to [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ign an address for your windows machine in the network section of the control panel. With that in mind, I have my windows machine set up to have a static IP address of 192.168.1.8, netmask 255.255.255.0, and gateway of 192.168.1.1. From there, the following is what I have forwarded from the router to my windows machine: Ports 3782 and 3783 for both TCP and UDP are forwarded for Squawkbox. port 3290 for TCP and UDP are forwarded for use by ASRC. This way, your router is not in a DMZ. If it were, your whole private network would be exposed to the DMZ, which means that anyone could possibly access your machines remotely, and kill your entire setup. So just forward those ports to the IP address you have set up, and you should be golden. BL. Brad Littlejohn ZLA Senior Controller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
