Help setting up port forwarding for Ekiga

Hi
I am trying to set up Ekiga on my Arch X86_64 box but I can't get port forwarding to work on the Thomson TG585v7 wireless router, which I am sharing with a neighbor. I have tried some how-to's I found via Google and set up Application/Game Sharing for the ports Ekiga uses. I also set up static IP connection as it seems to be needed by the router for port forwarding to work but Ekiga still reports that it cannot set up my network connection and asks me to set up port forwading manually, which I have already done.
I would very much appreciate any help to get Ekiga going for me.
My thanks in advance.

Thanks, but the problem is that setting up the router doesn't seem to work. I checked and repeated the set up a few times but no result. I feel I am missing a little detail somewhere but can't put my finger on it :-(

I need Help setting up port forwarding for my foscam FI8910W.

I am currently on Mac OS X 10.7.5. My ISP is verizon FIOS and I have an Actiontec MI424WR router with the wireless turned off. I have an AirPort Extreme running from the actiontec router for my wireless network. First of all I need to know if I should plug the Foscam into the actiontec router or the Airport Extreme? Then I need to know if I should set up the port forwarding on the Actiontec or the Airport Extreme. Lastly I need detailed instructions on how to set up the port forwarding. Hopefully someone has a solution. Thanks

OK, and what sort of help do you need?

How do you set up Port Forwarding for ARD 2.2 in AEB N?

Help,
I'm a novice at Apple Remote Desktop (ARD) - not an IT guy, so it has to be pretty basic and detailed.
How do you set up Port Forwarding for ARD 2.2 on the Apple Airport Extreme BS router, 802.11 N. I have one at each end of the internet connection. At one end I have an Airport Extreme N router with 2 macs and eventually 1 windows XP machine (if I can) that I would like to be able to connect to over the interenet (the clients) and at the other end, I have a Mac with ARD 2.2 installed also with an Airport Extreme N router. Note: Both routers use Static IP addresses and all computers use static IP's internally not through DHCP. What are the settings or directions to do this.
I have read and printed out the directions for Configuration of ARD 3.0 that are posted many times in the ARD discusion group, but it uses a Linksys router ( http://www.starkpr.com/ard.htm posted by Dave Sawyer). The Mac router is different, particularly with the place to set a Private IP address. I'm not sure about alot of things, but especially about the Private IP address, what number do I set it to, the one that is in my Network connections list? It automatically changes to a different number in AE N setup for Port Forwarding (by one) as if it is not suppose to the same?????
Are there any directions available that are as straight forward for the Airport Extreme N router, as the one's that are listed here for the Linksys Router's? ( http://www.starkpr.com/ard.htm )
Any and All help will be greatly appreciated.
P.S. I know I should have 3.0 but bought 2.2 just weeks before 3.0 came out and they would not give me an upgrade price, so I'm waiting for 4.0 to upgrade.
Thanks,
Jim

Try the following for each AirPort Extreme ...
AEBSn - Port Mapping Setup

I have the new Air Port Extreeme model A1521 and I need to set up port forwarding for HTTP. HTTP is not on the list in the set up. Does anyone know if any of those choices work for HTTP?

I am on a Windows 7 Ultimate PC and right now there is no Airport utility for setting up the new Apple Extreme so you have to do it on your iPad or iPhone. Does anyone know how to set up port forwarding for HTTP to get to DVR security cameras? There is nothing in the list that indicates HTTP port forwarding.

Thanks for your reply Tesserax as I did figure this out on my own. It took a bit because all of the options are not clear what they are for like the previous Airport Extreme and Apple does not support or guarantee that port forwarding will work for you application nor did any of the Apple support persons I spoke too have any knowledge for this feature. You also have to fill in the public if you are viewing through someone else's Wi-Fi or on your cell phone carrier network. This new Airport Extreme is a bit different since you cannot use the Airport utility on a PC like the older model and if anyone else is reading this they should be aware that if you do not have an Apple computer, iPhone or iPad and I'm not sure if some of the other network enabled devices like iPod Touch that you must use that can do it, there is no Airport utility for the PC and you would be wasting your money or have to take it back and get another brand wireless router to use if you do not own any of the above mentioned Apple products.

What is the correct process to set up Port Forwarding for a Falco LX4 Pro DVR serurity system

What is the correct process to port forward ports to view my Falco LX4Pro DVR security system on the Airport Extreme Base Station. I have forwarded ports 80, 5050, 6050, and 7050 per the AE documentation, but all I get is a message saying the ports are closed. Not sure what I may be missing.

This wouldn't seen to be an iTunes issue. I'd suggest asking in the Airport forum:

Need help setting up port forwarding

Dear Friends
I have just purchased a wireless linksystem 2.4 -g broadband router and my internet connection is running really well except my web server
I want to redirect people to my web site online game but my Isprovider has blocked access to port 80
How can I program my router to bypass this limitation from my ISprovider ?
I have registered my domain name with dns exit.com and also have a permanent software installed for any ip changes .
Any advice will be appreciated and helpful

Dear Friends
I have managed to come back to my original set up and I can reach my web server and others also but only as long as we are connected to the same isp provider
As soon as they come from another source the provider blocks the entry
My web server is using port 80
How can iIdirect people to my web server and bypass port 80 and this restriction from my isp provider

Port forwarding for clientless SSL VPN access

Hello,
I am currently trying to set up clientless SSL VPN access for some remote sites that our company does business with. Since their machines are not owned by my company, we don't want to install/support a VPN client. Therefore, SSL is a great option.
However, I'm running into an issue. I'm trying to set up port forwarding for a few remote servers. These remote servers are different and have distinct IP addresses. They are attempting to connect with two different servers here.
But my issue is that both servers are trying to use the same TCP port. The ASDM is not letting me use two different port forwarding rules for the same TCP port. The rules can exist side-by-side, but they cannot be used at the same time.
Why? It's not trying to access the same TCP port on a server when it's already in use. Is there anyway I can get around this?
If this doesn't make sense, please let me know and I'll do my best to explain it better.

Hi Caleb,
if you mean clientless webvpn port-forwarding lists, then you should be able to get your requirments. even the same port of the same server can be mapped to different ports bound to the loopback IP.
CLI:
ciscoasa(config) webvpn
ciscoasa(config-webvpn)# port-forward PF 2323 192.168.1.100 23
ciscoasa(config-webvpn)# port-forward PF 2300 192.168.1.200 23
then you apply the port-forwarder list under a group-policy
Hope this helps

Port forwarding for online gaming...dumb question

Hi, I'm trying to set-up port forwarding for online gaming. There's a section that asks for port numbers, "Enter the starting numbers of the External Ports (the port numbers seen by users on the Internet)" Where do I find the numbers of the ports?

If the game isn't listed there, google for it.

Help with port forwarding for the WRT54G

I need assistance please!
I am having issues trying to setup port forwarding for a ftp. I already have set this up for a SQL Server port and it works remotely. When I setup another rule for ftp using port range 20-21 it does not work.
I have confirmed that I have saved my settings, have the correct IP address, etc. I have firmware version 4.21.1 and not sure how to troubleshoot this. Any help would be great.
Thanks,
John

Yes you do need to have the port already forwarded for port 20~21 with both TCP/IP and UDP enabled unless you know for sure your ftp only uses just one of them. That is why I asked what port your SGL was set to. Follow the link that other guy posted and open port 20 and 21 (I only use 21 with no problems) and make sure it is directed to the IP of the ftp host. Also that PC needs to have the FTP enabled in windows. To do that go to your control panel > add/remove software > and on the left side go to add/remove windows components. Then check the box for the ftp and add it. It should ask for your windows CD do have it handy when you add the ftp component to your PC.

How to set Port Forwarding for video chat with AIM user?

I'm trying to setup video chat between my Mac in the US (with iChat 3.1) and my friend's PC in Japan (with AIM). I need to know what ports needs to be forwarded on my friend's router, and/or on my router.
Right now, when I attempt video chat with my friend (in Japan) at my home network, the invitation only works one way (me -> friend). And when I try to do it at work, it doesn't work at all.
Help appreciated,

Hi,
I am also having a similar problem that perhaps others can help with.
I'm using an iMac G5 with iChat here in the States, and am trying to connect to my parents' PC running AIM 5.5 on Windows XP sp2. To complicate matters, my parents have a Belkin wireless modem/router that they use to connect to the Internet.
Currently, I can text chat with my parents, and send files to them via iChat. However, whenever I try to initiate a video chat, I get an error saying that "Phil Waymouth" (i.e. my computer) isn't responding.
This is where we are at the moment:
- Internal firewall on my G5 is turned off. I can port scan login.oscar.aol.com fine for both TCP and UDP.
- XP firewall on my parent's computer is on, but has UPnP Framework (ports TCP 2869 and UDP 1900) set up as an exception.
- I've gone through the stages on http://portforward.com to set up Port Forwarding on my parents' Belkin router. In addition, we've enable UPnP on the router and restarted it. However, if we use www.myip.dk to get the IP address of one of their computers, and attempt to port scan it, it fails.
It feels like it's still either their router, or some ISP issue that's the problem?
I apologise for re-hashing the same problem, but perhaps someone here will have a lightbulb moment!
Any help is much appreciated,

Port Forwarding for Minecraft - Port not recognized as open

I am trying to set up Port Forwarding to host a Minecraft server on a local machine. I am able to connect to Minecraft from within the network, but when I try to use my external IP, it fails. I have port forwarding (supposedly) set up on my Airport Extreme base station, for TCP/UDP port 25565. When I check on canyouseeme.com , it says that the port is not open. Do I have some configuration wrong in Airport Utility? I'm pretty sure it's not something wrong with my Ubuntu box (the one hosting the server) because I am able to connect to it without any problem using it's Internal IP.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I am having this same problem. My AirPort Utility is v6.2. I have followed a tutorial labeled for v6. I cannot open my ports.
I have a static IP address with the following:
Router Mode: DHCP and NAT
I increased the DHCP Range so it would include the static IP address I selected.
DHCP Reservations
Description: Minecraft
Reserve Address By: MAC Address and entered my MAC address
IPv4 Address: the static IP address that I created in System Preferences- Network
Port Settings
Description: Minecraft
Public UDP Ports: 25565
Public TCP Ports: 25565
Private IP Address: same as above which is the same as the statis IP address
Private UDP Ports: 25565
Private TCP Ports: 25565
I also checked with Comcast, my internet provider, to make sure they were not blocking port 25565. The person on the chat said that that port was open.
I have been using yougetsignal.com to check if my ports are open and so far nothing.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Problems with Port Forwarding for RDP in WebVPN

Hi,
I'm hoping somebody can help me solve this problem that's been bugging for weeks. We recently implemented a double-layer firewall architecture. Before that, our users can access RDP via port forwarding on WebVPN or the Cisco VPN client without any problems.
After we implemented the double-layer firewall architecture, users who are going through the WebVPN and port forwarding for RDP began to experience frequent disconnections, slowness or freezing connections. The users who are using the client are fine.
I checked the logs and I'm getting repetitive TCP-O for the port forwarding connections for RDP. Additional information: the FW we installed as a 2nd layer is Netscreen. I've already set the policy on it to Any-Any for the meantime to help in troubleshooting but to no avail.
I hope somebody can help me in sorting this out as I'm kind of confused on the difference between the port-forwarding for RDP via the WebVPN and the normal RDP via the client.

Hi,
I didnt see anything marked with red in the above? (Atleast when I was reading)
I have not really had to deal with Routers at all since we all access control and NAT with firewalls.
But to me it seems you have allowed the traffic to the actual IP address of the internal server rather than the public IP NAT IP address which in this case seems to be configured to use your FastEthernet4 interfaces public IP address.
There also seems to be a Static NAT configured for the same internal host so I am wondering why the Static PAT (Port Forward) is used?

Homehub 5 port forwarding for Windows Homeserver 2...

Hi
Has anybody any solutions on setting up the HH5 for Windows Homeserver 2011
I've inputted all the rules manually as WHS couldn't complete the task, to find ports 80, 443, 4125 remain closed after manual input.
WHS reply's with UPnP not working / router not working.
BT customer services quite appalling and I'm not paying for Tech Support as the package is only 6 months old and I feel I shouldn't have to pay for a product that isn't working correctly, if it was over 12 months I understand I should pay.
I've manually inputted and setup port forwarding for my Iphone app and Android and they've finally started working.
Cheers
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Can you just put WHS in the DMZ on the HH5?

How to set up port forwarding on extreme with NAS

I've purchased a NAS (Synology DS211j with 2 caviar HD) over a month ago. Setting up the NAS for wireless connection locally was easy. I've been trying for 3 weeks on how to set-up port forwarding on my airport extreme base. I''ve researched and read countless threads on port forwarding and still cannot grasp the concept and the step by step provided. I need somebody that's patient enough to hand hold and guide me through this frustrating problem.
Equipment:
Comcast cable modem connected into Airport Extreme Base
Synology DS211j connected to Airport Extreme Base
Problem:
Cannot connect to my DiskStation via internet from wherever
confused whether to use FTP or Personal file sharing or whatever is the most suitable for my needs
Just need to access files on my DiskStation view/upload/download from wherever I'm at, whether on PC or Macbook Pro
Thanks in advance!

Port Forwarding for SlingBox

I would like to set up port forwarding on my Extreme so that I can access my SlingBox from work. My problem is that I can't find where to do this in Manual setup. I know I've seen it before and should be in the advanced section but it's no longer there. Do I have to change a setting so that it is available again?
During the automatic set up process of the SlingBox it attempts to make the changes for you on your router but it was not able to do it for the Airport Extreme which is why I am trying to do it manually.

To setup Port Mapping/Forwarding on the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn):
1. Assign a manual IP to the host device.
System Preferences > Network > Show > AirPort > TCP/IP
- Configure IPv4: Manually
- IP Address: <enter the desired IP address for your host server>
- Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
- Router: 10.0.1.1
- DNS Servers <your ISP DNS server IPs>
2. Setup Port Mapping on the AEBSn.
To setup port mapping on an AEBSn, connect wirelessly or directly, using an Ethernet cable, to one of the LAN port of the AEBSn, and then use the AirPort Utility to make these settings:
Advanced - Port Mapping tab
- Click the + (Add) button
- Service: <choose the appropriate service from the Service pop-up menu>
- Public UDP Port(s): <enter the appropriate UDP port values>
- Public TCP Port(s): <enter the appropriate TCP port values>
- Private IP Address: <enter the IP address of the host server>
- Private UDP Port(s): <enter the same as Public UDP Ports or your choice>
- Private TCP Port(s): <enter the same as Public TCP Ports or your choice>
