Cannot save Port Forwarding Settings

I have a Wireless-N Home Router WRT150N (firmware upgraded to v1.01.9 ).
When I try to set Port forwarding, I get the screen "Settings are successful. Continue". When I click Continue, the Port forwarding page comes back with empty fields, like if I did not enter anything. I tried to reset the Router twice. No result.
The same thing happens for Port Range and Single Port forwarding... Impossible to save any settings in there...
Any suggestion welcome...

Correction: caching was not the problem.
The problem was that before posting on this forum, I did not enter a existing IP for destination (left the default 192.168.1.0. What got me confused is that the Linksys interface comes up with a message saying that the settings have been successfully updated, even though nothing was done for lack of an existing destination IP, hence the virgin table served back.
I think Linksys should revise the GUY to alert the user when the destination IP is not properly set rather than pretending to have registered a new non functional setting.

I go back into the port forwarding setting page and literally after a fews secondsof inputting the ports and nothing is there and everything is zeroed out . Has anyone experienced this problem. Do I have to set my ip address to static before I can put my port forwarding settings in.

Yes to all.

WRT160Nv3 port forwarding settings not being saved

Hello there.
I am using a WRT160Nv3 router and am having trouble getting port forwarding to work.
Specifically, my settings are not being saved properly.
I am trying to set up a server to run for Minecraft, and I have eliminated all issues save port forwarding.
I open up the router's settings by going to 10.10.10.1 in my browser. I go to "Single Port Forwarding." I then choose a blank spot on the left and label the application (in this case, Minecraft), then I type in the ports I want to forward (minecraft uses 25565). I check the box "Enabled." Then I go down to the "Save Settings" button below and click it.
This brings me to a mostly black screen with a white box in it, and big black letters saying "Settings are successful" and a button to click, labeled "continue." I click this, and it returns me to the last page I was on (Single Port Forwarding).
But here is the problem- that page is EXACTLY the same as when I began. None of what I typed in or changed is actually saved on the screen o_0
This definitely baffles me, as it seems as if I did nothing in first place. I use the program whose port I wanted to forward and it still doesn't work, the error messages being the same as always.
So what is the matter here? Why aren't my settings being saved properly? Do I need to get a new router-this one is only a year old...
Any ideas?
PS- I also tried to do port range forwarding, and the same thing happens there too.

Cannot save Adobe PDF Settings File error

I'm using Acrobat X Pro with Windows 8. I've downloaded a .joboptions file to add to Distiller. I select Settings > Add Adobe PDF settings, browse to the file's location, select the file, and click Open.
Distiller says, "Cannot save Adobe PDF Settings File."
In the Start menu, I right-clicked Adobe Acrobat X Pro and selected Properties > Compatibility > Run this program as Administrator. It didn't help. Suggestions welcome.

I downloaded it from the linked website, and installed it successfully in Distiller 10. I don't know of a "Repair" utility for Distiller, so maybe you should uninstall and install Acrobat X in order to reinstall Distiller 10.

Airport Extreme removes port forward settings every reboot

I have set up various port forward settings on my Airport Extreme from OS X Server. However, every time I reboot the Airport, all port forward settings are lost except Contacts, Calendars, and DNS. It gets very troublesome to constantly readd all my settings in there. Port forwards are the only settings that are lost.
Please help!

I found the issue – and it's fairly simple and obviously really. I'm guessing you were adding the ports from OS X Server in the order they are listed within Server.app (where they are listed in alphabetical order). After Calendar, Contacts and DNS is "File Sharing".
If this is enabled, whilst File Sharing is enabled on the AirPort Extreme, the port forwarding entry for File Sharing, and anything below is removed.
Simply disable "File Sharing" from AirPort Utility before continuing (as recommended by Server.app when setting up the service for File Sharing).
I understand you replaced your AE and no longer have the issue – I thought I'd leave the explanation should others encounter it.

WRV210 loses port forwarding settings after reboot

Along with wireless problems that have already been documented about this device I am having problems with port forwarding where it will lose all its settings after losing its power. I then try to go into the management for port forwarding and am not able to put the settings back in as every time I hit 'Save' it just loads the page back up with no settings applied. Another strange thing is that the protocol comboboxes only have options for UDP or Both.
I then reapply the latest firmware and am able to enter the settings again.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm at my wits end with this one.
Thanks,
Paul

Cannot get port forwarding to work - what am I doing wrong?

Hi All,
I am sure I am doing something wrong, but can't see what.   All I need to be able to do is to port forward to one of my virtual machines web port on my file server.
So, scenario is:
Windows 2012 R2 Server.    IP address: 10.0.0.2      I have a VM running on there called spatial - it's IP address is 10.0.0.17
Before moving to Windows 2012 R2 server and virtualization - I had multiple servers and to port forward, simply changed the listening port of IIS to another port from standard - say 81. Then in my router, port forwarded web traffic to port 81 on that
server - worked like a charm.
Now however, when I have tried to do the same thing (10.0.0.17 web server listens on port 81) - the page times out. If I leave it at port 80 - the server2012 IIS page answers.
I guess I need to create some sort of gateway on the 2012 server to allow traffic to flow through to port 81 on the VM - but not sure how to? Can anyone help? Is there a simple walk through guide someone has written in order to achieve this -
as I am sure is a very common request. I have googled, but can't find exactly what I am looking for.
thanks.

Port forwarding settings don't last

Hi I have a synology NAS I set up the port forwarding and all worked fine, confirmed open port 80, all OK
All settings within home hub 2 have not been changed but now the NAS does not respond, and port 80 can no longer be seen any ideas please

There is a guide here.
Port forwarding problems
I assume that you are using a DDNS service to update your IP address, and you have manually configured a static IP address for the device on your LAN?

Help please, with port forwarding settings

I have an MSI RG60 wireless router (Ethernet hard wired to my XP Home PC) and don't know what settings to use for port forwarding, to enable my WinMX and BitTorrent clients to work successfully.
I have the port numbers, and assume that this information goes in the Service Port box, i.e. 6699, or 6881-6889.
I know which ports are TCP and which are UDP, but I don't know what IP address to enter or which Common Service Port type to choose. Can anyone help please?
I'm pretty sure that other settings in my PC are OK as I have successfully been running a Belkin router for a couple of years, and have only replaced it with the new MSI unit due to reliability problems.

It does indeed have port triggering, but it wants incoming and trigger port protocol info, along with trigger and incoming port numbers.
How can I type ipconfig into either of teh clients...WinMx or Bit Torrent?

Cannot get port forwarding to work on EA6500

Hi,
I have an EA6500 to replace the old WRT54G. I have an Apach server on my PC. On the WRT54G, I could easily set port forward to the server, it was working fine. But on the EA6500, I simply couldn't get it to work any more. What am I missing?
TIA

Thanks for the reply.
As it turned out for some "security" reasons, EA6500 port forwarding only allows access from outside of the network, but not from netwrok behind the router. So annoying, however I found this work around

look for poster sflick1's solution, it really works.

Cannot save my proxy settings

When I try to enter any proxy settings in the network section of the control panel, they do not save. regardless of whether or not I enter automatic proxy configuration file location (for a PAC file) or via the web proxy.
I click 'Ok' then 'Apply' but the settings do not get saved. Am I doing something wrong? This appears to work on my friends MBP.
If anyone has any insight into this problem I would be grateful. It means I cannot use the laptop at my university, which is a bit of a problem.

I cannot save the graphical settings permanantly

In one of the DP planning book, I cannot see the graphical view beyond year2009.
When he changes the maximum date to 2010 and apply those settings it shows view
till 2010. But these changes in the settings doesn't get saved permanantly. When he goes
to tabular form and again on graphics the saved settings go away.
Is it related to authorization?
Is it that I am not authorized to change the settings.
Need your suggestion on this

Hi,
It looks like you have authorisation issue only.
I tried your scenario by saving my graphical settings and then
tried opening again, the earlier saved setting was
restored.
Check & maintain the related authorisation object whether exists
for your user id and then retry the same

Cannot save Basic privacy settings

Hi,
I'm trying to save "Only allow people in my Contact list to contact me" under the Basic options in the Privacy options. When I press save and return to check that that choice has been retained the setting is back to "Allow anyone to contact me". Meanwhile in the Advanced options similar choices save without any problem. However, I continue to receive notices from unknown people wanting to become contacts.
I have tried one solution of signing out for 5 seconds and then signing back in, but this didn't work.
I use W7 x64 and Skype 6.10.0.104. on 2 PCs and I have an Android device running skype too, a Samsung Galaxy S3 and occasionally a Samsung Galaxy Note.
Your help is much appreciated,

There are no Privacy settings that can prevent people from sending new contact invitations to you. Privacy settings have only effect on chat messages and calls, but not on new contact invitations.
