Port forwarding with e4200 and 660 embarq modem

Hello, I have a e4200 router, And a 660 series modem, I'm trying to portforward for a game called minecraft, I cannot seem to get the ports to open, I've called Century link they told me to put my modem in to bridge mode, So I did they said my IP should be public not private now, It is still private, What Am I doing wrong.

It is necessary to set your modem to FULL BRIDGED MODE so that your router will be able to handle all of your Internet traffic and to avoid conflicts with your ports. You can check for the status of the IP address on the router web interface. Here are the steps:
A] With the help of Cisco Connect Software (if at all you have installed the router with the help of this software)
1] Open the software and go to the option which says "Router Settings"
2] Then click on the option which says "'Advanced Settings" which will take you to the router's configuration page.
3] Click on the Status tab look for the Internet IP address that should be public ip address.
You can do some more settings as well on the router.
4] Click on setup tab and change the MTU into Manual and enter 1365 for the Size.
5] Click the security tab and uncheck 'Filter Anonymous Internet Requests'.
B] If you haven't installed Cisco Connect then you can log on to the router's user interface using it's default IP address in the browser which is 192.168.1.1 and type in 'admin' as the password leaving the username field blank. This will take you to the router's web interface and then follow steps as mentioned above to make the changes.
After doing the following settings then check the connectivity...

Port Forwarding with Verizon-Branded Action GT704-WG

I am new to the forums, and I am already overjoyed with the 30 minutes I spent figuring out that the login mechanism does not even work with browsers other than IE7/8. Lots of fun to start.
I live in a residential building with the residential High Speed Internet Plan. I assume this is the case because it is a DSL line and they are not using business grade, or I do not think I would be having these problems.
I have spent many hours trying to figure out how to port forward with the above-mentioned router/modem/gateway/**bleep** extraordinnaire. I am in IT professionally, and I am tired of feeling **bleep**. I called Verizon tech, but they were very unhelpful unless I pay for a premium tech service to figure out port forwarding problems. And yes, I have read the info on port-forward.com numerous times for this device.
Essentially, I want to forward an arbitrary port, let's say 6336, to a server running Ubuntu 9.10. I have put this computer in the DMZ using the web interface. I have also set up a mapping rule to forward 6336 (all three entries pointed to 6336 in the Security/Applications/Forwarding section, following docs on port-forward.com for this specific model AND Verizon's own documentation). Occassionally, I can see the service is viewable from the likes of canyouseeme.org. Nonetheless, I cannot access the port: I get a connection refused error when using ssh on this port. Yes, I correctly configured ssh on the DMZ server/host to respond to the non-standard 6336 port, and I have tried it with the server's firewall system (ufw/iptables, for the curious) enabled and disabled. It NEVER works.
Some posts here have indicated I might need a static IP assignment. That can be done only client-side (meaning the Ubuntu server in the DMZ), if I understand people saying it is not possible to do static assignments from this **bleep** gateway, so I am not sure if that should matter (I wonder what happens with this **bleep** when two computers try to demand the same static IP; dare I guess that he asks first wins?). I cannot recall if I have uPnP enabled or disabled as I am at the office right now, but I believe it is off. Not sure if this matters either. If I am wrong, I would love if someone could let me know. I am at a loss and sick of dealing with such a simple problem. I would really appreciate the help.

Ok.
#1 On your computer setup a Static IP.
This means following the directions at http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-con...
#2 The Static IP must be outside of that DHCP range of the router. So, this means your IP has be above 1 but below 64.
#3 In the router forward to the IP Address that you setup on the computer.
OR if the router can give the computer the same IP Address each time, you could do that.

Port Forwarding with Airport Express 802.11n Utility version 6.1

Hi all,
Quick question, hoping it can be solved with a quick answer
Not sure what I'm doing wrong: I'd like to set up port forwarding for Skype and Transmission, however in the airport utility even when I assign the public/private ports to the ones specified in the respective programs (with the IP address for the machine I am using), if I go into Transmission or onto a port checker website the connections are shown as closed for the ports I have selected (on the public side).
I've made a DHCP reservation for this machine to tie it to a given IP address, and I've enabled NAT port forwarding protocol in the Network options (no default host so far).
Also, in case it makes a big difference, right now I'm connecting to the internet via a Cisco DCP3825 cable modem running in bridge mode, with the AEBS in DHCP and NAT router modes.
Any tips?
Thanks!

Sadly I never got it to work. I called up Apple and they claimed that all the ports are open for the Airport Express, but if I run port scanner in Network Utilities none of the ports I specify show up as open unless I select one of the "Default" port categories like "Windows File Sharing". I told this to the person I spoke to on the phone, and they replied several times in a row that they are not allowed to help set up port forwarding, that they can only provide info on how to open the ports, and that even if the ports are subsequently not opened or forwarded they can't provide any assistance. It wasn't a very good conversation. Unfortunately, based on some of the other disucssions I've looked at in this forum, it doesn't seem possible to do conventional custom port forwarding using this version of the Airport Utility. Hopefully someone will correct me though. Sorry I can't be more help.

Port Forwarding with Port Translation RV042, RV016, RV082

This is a feature request for the Linksys RV series Routers. Currently, it appears that the Cisco/Linksys RV042, RV082, and RV016 only support port forwarding and 1-to-1 Nat. One item that I find very helpful with customers is port forwarding with port translation. I am requesting that this feature be included with a future firmware relase for these RV series routers.
Here is an example of the request.
Take an incoming service request on a TCP or UDP destination port and forward it to an internal IP on a different TCP or UDP port. For example, customer A wants to allow different machines on the internal network to receive Windows RDP connections inbound. To make PC maintenance identical between the internal machines, the customer does not want to change the listening port for RDP on the individual PC workstations through the Windows Registry. The customer also does not want to dedicate separate IP's to each machine in a 1-to-1 NAT setup. The only option is to have remote connections to each of these PC's to use a different destination port. So, for example, PC one could be reached on TCP port 5151, PC two on TCP port 5152, and PC three on port 5153. This requres a firewall that is able to translate each of these connection requests to a different internal IP on the default RDP port (TCP 3389). So, the following setup is required:
Port Forwarding with Port Translation:
Router External IP on TCP port 5151 ---> forwarded to PC One's internal IP on TCP 3389
Router External IP on TCP port 5152 ---> forwarded to PC Two's internal IP on TCP 3389
Router External IP on TCP port 5153 ---> forwarded to PC Three's internal IP on TCP 3389
There are several comparable "small business" class router competitors to the RV042, RV082, and RV016 that will perform this port forwarding with port translation process without incident. Unfortunately, these Cisco/Linksys small business routers will not accomplish this task currently.
Please implement this feature in a future firmware release.
Thanks!

Excellent. I see this now. None of our customers actually use the UPNP feature, so we never realized that Port Forwarding with Port Translation features existed on this page along with the ability to enable or disable UPNP.
Perhaps, in the future, this functionality could be moved to and incorporated into the port forwarding page which seems to be a more logical location.
In either case I'm very happy to know that this feature is available on the RV's.
Thanks for your assistance.

Port forwarding with E2000 for a game called Minecraft.

Okay, I've been wanting to port forward this game called Minecraft for quite awhile now, but never got around to it, but now that I've wanted to let my friends that can't play with hamachi play with me. I wanted to port forward it so that they go into the game without using hamachi, or any other networking program. If anyone knows how to acomplish this with a guide for this then it would be nice, or just simply write out instructions. I've already tried once and whenever I ran my server, I would say "FAILED TO BIND TO PORT" or just ask me this "Is another _____ running on that port?" Thanks for helping guys,

Yea it looked okay. Go to cmd, then type in ipconfig. Look for your ipv4 address. Now make sure that address is the same as the one that you set up port forwarding for in your router.
Make sure you have reserved that ip by going to 192.168.1.1--->Basic Setup--->DHCP Reservation---> (your PC). Now restart your PC. The important thing is to make sure that your local ip matches everything (Port forward, server.properties, and the DHCP Reservation Table)
Now go to the .bat files that you downloaded for the minecraft server. You should see a file called "server.properties". Go into it and make sure that the server ip matches your local ip (192.168.1.4 for example). If not, change it. Here's a reference video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MJVNxPtmtM
I don't work for Cisco. I'm just here to help.

How to port forward with Modem and Router

I have a Linksys AM300 Modem and a Linksys WRT610N router.
I want to forward ports for Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 and STEAM.
How do I port forward when I have 2 devices and how can I test that it is working?

I would recommend that you reconfigure your AM300 into bridge mode. In bridge mode it operates like a standard modem would do. Then reconfigure the WRT610N for your internet connection, i.e. most likely PPPoE. Now the WRT has a direct connection into the internet. Now you only need to configure port forwarding on the WRT610N.

Trouble with port forwarding, DHCP, VUZE, and downloading speed.

I am using Vuze to download things. I have a slow download speed and yellow smiley face, indicating a NAT problem. I think I need to implement a port forwarding, but that requires a static IP address. My router and security is set up such that I CANNOT connect to the internet using a manual configuration--DHCP only. However, I always have the same IP address. This is because the wireless router--a Motorola SB900--will only recognize approved computers designated by the IP address.
Can anyone advise on what to do next?

you are dealing with two networks. There is a network between your computer and your router. There is a second network between your router and your ISP.
Port-forwarding is from your router to your computer.

You need to set Port-forwarding between your computer and your router. You will need a fixed IP address on a your Computer. There is to ways of doing this. You can set up a static IP address on your computer. A hack would be to add 10 or 20 to your IP address that your router gives out. For example if your router gives out 192.168.1.10 you of would add 10 to the ten giving 192.168.1.20. you need to make the addition to the right most number of which in the example is ten.
The section way is . . . You can have your router a signed a fixed address based on your MAC address. ( Each Internet device has a fixed address that is called the MAC address. This is a different address than your IP address. the MAC address is assigned in the factory. )
Another hack would be to Port-forward to the number your router assigned at random. If your Computer is the only computer on the router, the number should always be the same. It is a hack because this is not guaranteed.

Port-forwarding or UPnP on VERIZON FIOS modem/router

I'm trying to help someone access his home network remotely from another location. he just got the new Verizon FIOS network.
i'm new to the world of port-forwarding and UPnP forwarding, but have learned a lot in a short period of time.
I can easily setup port-forwarding and UPnP forwarding (necessary to setup the afp file sharing, screen sharing, etc) on Linksys routers that have those capabilities.
My friend just got the new Verizon FIOS network installed. It is smoking fast both up and down. We figured out that the box Verizon provided him (it's a fairly huge thing) is an internet modem, a router, and a wireless router all in one.
And once we accessed its control panel, I definitely saw places where we could configure port-forwarding........
but it's not quite as straightforward as it is on a Linksys router in that, on a Linksys, if I want to open a specific port, like 5900, for screen sharing, I can easily type in the numbers 5900 and type the IP address of the computer on my LAN that I wish to forward port 5900 traffic to.......or I can do this with UPnP forwarding....either way it is simply and fully controllable.
But on this Verizon box, it seems to have most standard ports and protocols stored in presets that you must choose from. For example, if I wanted to setup port forwarding for FTP traffic, I would choose FTP from the dropdown menu and then the router would automatically know to forward port 21 to the computer of my choice.
but we specifically want to turn on AFP for apple file sharing, which is port 548. On the Linksys, i could simply type port 548. But this Verizon router does not show a service called AFP. It has a nice LONG menu of many different pre-set options, but AFP is not one of them. Would it be called something else on a device like this that is obviously not specifically designed to know Apple's file sharing protocol?
So would anyone know what kind of service I should look for that opens port 548 for file sharing?
Anyone have experience with these new Verizon routers/modems yet? I'd really love to find a way to type everything in manually, but I dunno if that's possible on this unit.
i know there's a lot here. thank you to anyone who knows about this and can shed some light

That doesn't work because applications that initiate outbound connections are given randomly assigned 5-digit port numbers (e.g., 49144) through which the CLIENT communicates. The "well known" port numbers like 548 for afp, 22 for ssh, 80 for web servers, etc., are for the SERVER function to which the server daemon listens. Example: you don't send the request to download your email from your pop 110 (or 995 when using SSL), or from your imap 143 (or 993 when using SSL); that's the port number at the DESTINATION server to where your traffic is delivered, i.e., the port to which that SERVER is listening for incoming traffic. Same for when you send mail, you send from some randomly assigned five-digit port number TO the smtp server's port 25. You can see this by launching Terminal.app from an admin-privileged account and typing sudo tcpdump -i en1 (use en1 for airport, en0 for wired ethernet) and looking at the packet transmissions' headers.

Port Forwarding for Counter Strike Server - DSL Modem to Linksys Router then to my Laptop (wifi)

Hi,
i have read many posts here but did not find any solution. Below is my current situation.
Objective: I want to create a Counter Strike 1.6 Server and for that i have to forward port 27015.
Networking Issues: Im currently using a Shiro (Dsl Modem) which is given by my ISP & i have connected my DSL modem to my Linksys WRT54G (ver 7.2) router. I connect my laptop thorugh wifi to router.
I know basic port forwarding but that does not help me. I need a complete tutorial on this issue coz i dont have much network knowledge.
waiting for reply
thank you

Port forwarding, NAT, SSH and Transmission.

A couple of days ago I decided to setup the Transmission daemon, along with automatization for my downloads. Recently, however, to put a layer of security around my laptop, I set up a wireless router I had lying around that is now connected with a wire to my laptop. The reason for this is that I have no idea how iptables work yet, and until then I decided this will suffice for the moment. One of the problems though (yes, problems seems to come in twenty-fold where my luck is concerned), is that when I rewire my laptop directly to the internet, without the router, NetworkManager or Archlinux doesn't reset the ip address, which for some reason jumps to 192.168.1.122, which it never uses otherwise. I haven't yet tried reinstalling networkmanager, but when I did turn it off, dhcpdcd assigned the same address... The problem here being that it shouldn't assign a LAN-address, I'm directly connected to the internet. Sidenote here though; my internet connection is just a plug in the wall, the operators here (I live on a kind of campus), probably only use a network-switch to relay the traffic to the socket.
That's that, my wired network doesn't work directly, only via the wireless router, wired or wireless. Because of this, I have to use port-forwarding for SSH (to test if the port forwarding works), and the Transmission daemon with an rcmp port of 9091., which was my intention in the first place. I have no idea if logging into my.ip.address.here:9091 in a browser would work, I just used localhost:9091.
Now for the results:
$ nmap -sT xx.xxx.xx.xx
Starting Nmap 5.21 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2010-06-14 19:42 CEST
Nmap scan report for xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Host is up (0.038s latency).
Not shown: 996 closed ports
PORT STATE SERVICE
22/tcp filtered ssh
53/tcp open domain
80/tcp open http
9091/tcp filtered unknown
Here it shows that the ports are actually not closed, but they're not exactly opened either, from what I gathered from the internet.
SSH shows the true problem:
$ ssh neal@xxxxxxxx
ssh: connect to host xxxxxxxx port 22: Connection timed out
SSH-ing to 192.168.0.102 (my internal ip) works, as does to localhost, same for Transmission webGUI. Before I used port-forwarding ssh would correctly say that it couldn't get traffic from the router.
My router is a cheap solution to another problem I had, but it should work like any router. It's a Sitecom WL-607. I disabled login authentication for the moment. Also, there is no filtering going on in the firewall. Like I said earlier, I don't get iptables, so that's not being used. The hosts file allows all and denies nothing.
TLDR version; I'm using port-forwarding on my Sitecom WL-607, but all ports except http and the 53 port are being blocked.
Is there something I'm missing here?
Thanks in advance,
Neal van Veen.

by default, all routers assign there clients an ip address from there internal pool of addresses, your wireless router is assigning you that address and then NAT's the connection with the WAN side, but even after directly plugging in to the wall socket you still dont get a new ip address, use dhcpcd <mydev> in terminal to reresh dhcp lease. if not then your campus/location/etc may also be using NAT on there own side.
as for the ports, iptables doesnt block any traffic by default, it allows everything. if there is filtering, it is from your wireless router.
on the above ssh and nmap scans, did u use your lan ip, or your public ip.

Port forwarding with natd

I have set up my Leopard Server with a public ip on Ethernet, 85.165.220.114, and a private ip on the Airport interface, 192.168.207.200.
This is working well, I can access my server with a registered domain name from the internet, with web, ssh etc.
Now I want to forward port 12000 to a device on my network with ip 192.168.207.245, and put this into /etc/nat/natd.plist:
<key>redirect_port</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>proto</key>
<string>tcp</string>
<key>targetIP</key>
<string>192.168.207.245</string>
<key>aliasIP</key>
<string>85.165.220.214</string>
<key>aliasPortRange</key>
<string>12000</string>
<key>targetPortRange</key>
<string>12000</string>
</dict>
</array>
I have Firewall setup and running, and NAT running on my server.
Port 12000 is checked in Firewall, and that should be it.
Port forwarding should now work, but it doesn't.
Looking at Firewall log, it looks like the Firewall is doing it correctly:
Aug 10 11:02:46 leopard ipfw[66524]: 12315 Accept TCP 84.212.229.188:57224 192.168.207.245:12000 in via en0
Aug 10 11:02:46 leopard ipfw[66524]: 12301 Accept TCP 84.212.229.188:57224 192.168.207.245:12000 out via en1
So I am completely lost why this does not work as it should.
Ivan

I got it working at last. I removed the Airport, and made a second Ethernet interface in system preferences - Network. The second interface populated with the private IP address, and gateway with the same private ip (192.168.207.200).

Port forwarding: Base station as bridge or modem/router as bridge?

I use a modem/router (Netopia Cayman 3346) to connect to the internet. It's hooked up to my airport extreme (old round model) to go wireless.
I now would like to forward some ports. I understand you have to set either the airport station or the modem/router as a bridge and then forward the ports on the other device. Am I right so far?
My question: What is the difference (if any) to bridge either one of the devices? Any pros or cons in using Airport as port forwarding device or my netopia? Which one shall I set to bridge mode? Both allow to set port forwarding.
Thanks for clearing this up for me.
Gordon.

I'd like to forward some specific ports. For example port 36391 (TCP/UDP). I know that to do this I have to set one of the two devices as a bridge, and then configure the other device to forward the ports I want. I also know that I can either set up my base station as the bridge or my modem/router.
My question is: which one of the two shall I choose to use as bridge? Airport base station or modem/router? Does it matter or not which one I choose?
Thanks

Port forwarding with airport & external router

Hi,
I'm happy with port forwarding normally, but I've just made my network entirely wireless and can't figure out the answer to this problem. I have a non wired netgear router as my internet access point, an airport express is connected to this getting its address via DHCP, another airport is joined to this network, and 2 macs are connected to the airports again getting addresses via DHCP. How do I port forward to the macs using this setup? I can't figure it out. Obviously I'll need to configure manually, but if I open the port on my router and open the same port on the AX will they go throught to the mac ok. Do I map the router to forward to the AX manual IP then map the AX to a specific mac IP? Any tips appreciated before I go ahead and break my network
Emma

Emma,
Ok, here are my thoughts. Have you tried assigning static IPs via DHCP, not manual config, based on client MAC addresses? Meaning when the router sees an ethernet MAC address it always assigns the same IP to that machine. This should enable the handing out of IPs while retaining port forwarding to the same machine each time and still preserve the routing that DHCP seems to enable more betterer . I'm not familiar with the netgear setup and I couldn't get my AX performing satisfactorily for my needs either so I have returned it however this is a 'somewhat' common option when setting up DHCP on different routers and I have found it works better when daisy chaining through routers.
HTH,
Steve

Port Forward with EA4500 Cloud connect firmware

Installed my new EA4500 and trying to access my PC from internet (remote desktop) in order to do so I need to forward the TCP port 3389. In the old web admin page this option was easy to find and change. with the new cloud connect I can't find it. how do Ienable port forwarding on the EA4500? thanks

You can find port forwarding under Security. click on the "Security" icon on the left hand panel then it will open another window and there you will be able to select "APPS and GAMING" and that's where you can find Port Range Forwarding.

How to port forward with AirPort Extreme

I really just cant find an accurate description in the support community. Err, let me rephrase: I'm not tech-savvy enough to really comprehend all aspects of port forwarding within the AirPort utility.
I am trying to set up a server for a game (Starbound) and I have been trying for hours to open 1 port. I believe it connects through TCP on port 20125.
I cant seem to figure out which IP address the utility needs. The router's? Which IP address is the router's if so? How do I see that?
I wish server was freeware so badly, I've watched videos and tried to replicate the results manually but I just absolutely can't get it. Would really appreciate support on this, as I've never encountered this problem configuring port forwarding in a browser-based scenario.
Thanks all. All I really need is a walkthrough to open that ONE port.

For reference the following AirPort User Tip will give you the basics for port forwarding.
I cant seem to figure out which IP address the utility needs.
What is required is the IP address of the host device that you want reached from the Internet. In this case it would be the server hosting the Starbound game.
It is highly recommended that you configure your server with a static Private IP address. You can do this using the DHCP Reservation feature of the AirPort Utility. What this does is assign a dedicated address from the pool of addresses that are provided to local network clients. You will then use this address to populate the IP Address field for the port mapping. Note: Port Forwarding and Port Mapping are used interchangeably. Apple uses Port Mapping.
To assign a DHCP Reservation:
Start the AirPort Utility, select the AirPort Extreme, and then, select Edit.
Select the Network tab.
Click on the "+" button under the DHCP Reservations window.
For "Description," enter Starbound or whatever you want to describe this port mapping.
Reserve Address By: MAC Address
MAC Address: (Note: This will be the hardware MAC address of the server's Ethernet or wireless interface.)
IPv4 Address: [enter the desired IP Address that you want to assign the server. It should be from the available pool of DHCP addresses. By default this pool is: 10.0.1.2 thru 10.0.1.200. For example, you can use 10.0.1.100
Select Save
Using the reference provided earlier, use the AirPort Utility to define the port mapping that you require. (Note: You should still be on the Network tab.) I filled in the values for you. Note, however; that you may need to change the value for the IP Address field to the address that you set earlier in the DHCP Reservation.
