Linksys e4200 port forwarding

I need some help with port forwarding for Minecraft application (port 25565).
I use modem and router to connect to the internet.
When I connect my PC directly to modem port forwarding is working.
When I connect my PC through my router the port is closed. I followed instruction for port forwarding.
I disabled Windows firewall, antivirus etc.
Any idea how to open those ports for linksys e4200 please?
Thank you in advance for your time and help,

Thanx all for your reply and help.
Here is what I've done:
1. I disabled DMZ mode on my Linksys e4200.
2. I changed my DMZ host on my modem to my Router internal IP.
3. I tuned on Remote Access on my Router:
Question:
Shoud I put my router or modem in brigde mode?
I use pppoe:
Thanks in advance

E4200 port forwarding not working (v1 1.0.05)

Hi there.
I'll try not to rant too much, but I've had nothing but problems with this 'supposed' high end router... and when I tried calling Cisco I got the old yee-ha to cough up $30 for tech support on a $200 router I got 10 months ago (/rant).
Anyway, following several speed drop issues with my router, I factory reset about 5 times. I later read in the internetz that QoS on these routers was causing the speed to fall to half no matter what settings are used, so I disabled QoS. This time I seem to have steady speeds, but no port forwarding method I use works! Used to work fine, but now Single PF, PF Range or anything else I can think of fails miserably. Even DMZ can't seem to open ports...
I am extremely disappointed in this router and please, don't advise me to factory reset: I've tried, it doesn't work and quite frankly I have way too many devices to painfully reconnect to not send me over the edge.
Please, if anyone has any idea what's going on, your help is more than welcome.
Thanks

My setup is pretty simple: a Docsys3 modem through my ISP, piped to my Cisco E4200, and a few computers and devices connected to that, all on the same level (no switch or hub).
To my knowledge the modem doesn't filter or route anything, and I don't need to login or connect to my ISP - cable internet with direct filtering on the modem. I might have missed something but here is a question: if I open a port, will it show open even if there is no application to "receive" the connection? I'm asking because I'm starting to wonder if my server might be a bit fussy...?
To protect your router against possible DNS Rebinding Attacks, certain actions will not work from behind a router. Typically, doing this is for testing purposes. What you can do to test if a certain application (port forward) works remotely, is to do it from outside your network.
To test this functionality, this must be done from the outside of the router (remote area). This includes even if the “Filter anonymous Internet requests” is unchecked.

Linksys X3500 - Port Forwarding (limited)

Hi everybody!
We have purchased 3 pieces of Linksys X3500.
One for us and a couple for an installer (our customer) who wants to make a wireless home network (for a couple of end users).
I have to tell you that we are a distributor for security systems (Tvcc and so on) in our area (north of Milan) and we have a lot of NVR and DVR on our network we need to put on-line as demos.
Today i start to configure the Modem/Router and i find no prob since i tried to add "some" port forwarding...
We have about 60 single ports to configure and the page of device is limited to not more than 15 (customized) slots!!
I was hoping the device was able to allow me to add more slots but it seams to be not possible!
How can i do?
(ps: i don't want to add an external firewall to do it!)

I wasn't talking about the algorithm of wireless but the one used for manage the priority of the traffic...(when devices are already connected)
and if there's an external device (hardware) that can do a better job (like a "Lan Controller" but cheapest).

Linksys WRT610N Port Forwarding

I am finding it impossible to set up port forwarding. No matter what I do I remain completely stealthed when I do a port probe via www.grc.com. The only way I seem to be able to open a port is if I enable remote management. When I do that, whatever port I specifiy as the remote management port is then fully open. Obviously, I can't leave a port exposed like this and, anyway, I need to open multiple ports for my purposes.
Is there a bug? Can technical support please help?
Some background: I'm in the UK and I connect to the internet using the Fibre-to-the-cabinet (FTTC) technology. I have a BT supplied modem (Huawei Echolife HG612) which is completely locked (it is BT property) with no ability to log in and change settings. The WRT610N is plugged into the LAN socket of the modem and connects via PPPoE. Everything else works fine.

A firewall does not open or close a port. A firewall blocks or passes transient traffic. Thus if the port is closed on the computer it doesn't matter what the firewall does. The port will never show up as open as long as the port is not in use.

E4200: Port forward to broadcast for WOL?

Some routers are able to forward to broadcast directly by sending a port to 192.168.1.255, other's I've been able to trick by forwarding to 192.168.1.254 and then editing the arp table with 192.168.1.254 <-> ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff. Is there any way I can edit the arp table of the E4200? Is there a way to telnet in or get a console connection?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

there is a way a lot more easier. they only locked de .255 adress out, not all broadcast adresses. as a home user i don't need 254 ip adresse because i don't have that amount of computers, so i just changed the subnet mask to 255.255.255.128. the new broadcast adress is .127 and that works perfect

Linksys router port forwarding suddenly closed

i have a 54G wireless home router ..... successfully port fowarded an application from a CPU (server).... but after no connection made from the user to the server ..... it suddenly close the application ..... so what i did is to reboot the router in order to refresh the connection ......
Is there any other ways to fix this sudden close of the ports ? so that i would do anymore reboots on my router
I really appreciate any help .....

MTU is the Maximum Transmission Unit. It specifics the largest packet size permitted for Internet transmission. Select Manual if you want to manually enter the largest packet size that will be transmitted. The recommended size, entered in the Size field, is 1500. You should leave this value in the 576 to 1500 range. To have the Router select the best MTU for your Internet connection, keep the default setting, Auto. A larger MTU brings greater efficiency because each packet carries more user data while protocol overheads, such as headers or underlying per-packet delays, remain fixed; the resulting higher efficiency means a slight improvement in bulk protocol throughput. A larger MTU also means processing of fewer packets for the same amount of data But sometimes we have to manually input the size if the router is unable to determine the actual size.
Now for your second part of the question: Where do you check the external IP address of the router? You have to go to the status page of teh router to check the IP address. If you have a dynamic IP address from your ISP, then it will change frequently and you wont be able to ping the previous address.
Also, what is the firmware version on the router?

Help with port forwarding

i am running a web and mail server from my home computer. i have port 25 and port 80 set to forward traffic to my webserver. port 80 works ok, but according to the linksys log, the linksys router is blocking port 25. My isp is not blocking any ports, and i can send mail from my mail server. how can I get the linksys router to stop blocking incoming port 25? my router setup is: linksys befw11s4 port forwarding: 80 to 80 25 to 25 upnp is enabled upnp forward smtp 25 tcp to port 25 192.168.X.X dmz is enabled for the server's ip.

First off, DISABLE the dmz!! That opens ALL ports to your pc, you dont want that.
Second, because you had the pc in the dmz tells me that the router is not blocking port 25, again, in the dmz all ports are open.
Disable upnp, it will just cause problems and you arent using it anyway.
Go to :
https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2
Click proceed, enter 25 in the box in the middle, then click user specified custom probe.
Does it show as stealth?

Not enough port fields in port forwarding for Linksys E4200

I have always used netgear routers in the past. After a series of issues regarding configurations not working correctly I invested in what appeared to be a semi pro router, the cisco linksys e4200.
I have a centralized server which I use to access a mass of different services such as mail, dns, VPN, FTP, Kerberos, http and many more. While I am not a massive networking nerd, this server setup is like my garage project. To access these services externally to my LAN as far as I understand I would need to configure port forwarding for each service to my server. Unfortunately the control panel for the linksys E4200 only offers about 15 custom port fields for forwarding, and some documentation I have read shows that with it's basic install my server could be using up to 60 ports at once.
Is this router just not suitable for this sort of network. If so I will be very disappointed because I have spent a quarter of the price on netgear routers with more control than this.
If anybody could assist with details and options I would greatly appreciate it

Wrong forum, use "small business routers".

Linksys e1200 PORT RANGE FORWARDING is not working

I currently have an E1200. I can port forward single ports, but when I attempt to forward a range of ports it doesn't work and there is no error in the log.
Specifically I am port forwarding RTP ports (10000 - 20000). I am aware of the security risks, please do not preach.

I have a problem with port forwarding http port 80 this for i surveillance camera.
I have all the settings are correct but I can not convert. Opening this port Also no other ports open. Who can help me on the way to this is to get together. I mtu gezte the firewall function in 1400 and put on the standard port 80 http to put. and of course the ip address that is in the same range.
I do not know what I'm doing wrong because the old linksys just worked. It I hope someone can help me.

Port forwarding feature in Linksys VoIP adapter

Hello,
I tried to use the port forwarding feature (in the Application tab), but could not get successful. I need to telnet to a Cisco router behind my Linksys VoIP Adapter, uses starting port=23, ending port=23 and ip is the Cisco router ip.
Let me know if I am missing anything. I tried the DMZ feature too, but still the same result.
When I am trying from outside I get this:
termserver>telnet 75.156.137.224
Trying 75.156.137.224 ...
%Connection refused by remote host
If I configure the Cisco Router with NAT, I have no problem connecting from outside. I want the Linksys as the gateway, not the Cisco router. Any help would be highly appreciated.

What is the model number of your Linksys router? Make sure that you have the latest firmware on the device. Also make sure that you forward TCP port 23 for the IP address of the Cisco router coming from the DHCP server of the Linksys router or if you have a static, it has to be on the same subnet as Local IP address of the Linksys router.

Linksys E1200 Router not saving Port Forwarding changes

Hi!
I am currently attempting to port forward on my Linksys E1200 Router and am not succeeding in saving my settings. I am attempting to open port 25565 though both Single Port Forwarding and Port Range Forwarding, and whenever I click the "save settings" button, I receive a full window message stating that my changes have been saved. Upon clicking this, I return to the previous screen whereupon my changes have been erased and my port has not been forwarded. Can anyone assist me with this? I've searched for hours through forums and tech help websites, but I can't find anyone else with this issue.
Issue:
Linksys E1200 Router not saving Port Forwarding changes.
I have tried:
-Restarting the Modem
-Restarting the browser
-Restarting the computer
-Tried to Port Forward through both the Single and Ranged Port Forwarding

Hi there. You can try another browser or a different computer. If it is the same thing, upgrade the firmware of the router. You can refer to this link on how to http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=0a6881b90224439b92c8d8f19ca42e5d_21511.xml&pid=80&...

Port forwarding to different ports on the Linksys WRT54GS.

As you can guess, I have a Linksys WRT54GS wireless router...one of the original 1.0 versions with speedbooster. Behind this router I have my standard set of machines with dedicated IP's and a set number of IP's for additional devices to acquire IP leases dynamically via DHCP should I bring them home. One of these machines with a dedicated IP is my Debian file server. This machine is headless and without keyboard. It just sits in the corner of a room and hums along. I use SSH to remote into the device to perform maintenance, shutdown, restart, etc.
My question is this. I would like to know if the WRT54GS can be configured with "unassigned" WAN facing ports (such as 7468) to forward to "assigned" ports such as 22 which is used for SSH. In this way I can leave the default settings for SSH on the Linux machine but have 7468 as the SSH port when connecting from other computers on the Internet. My goal here is to reduce any script kiddies or other malicious code from being able to target the well known port 22.
In the Games & Applications setup you can find port forwarding and port triggering. It appears that you can only forward by port range. See this link. It gives a start and end to the port range. This appears to only forward a range of ports to the destination IP which is not really what I want to do. Do I need a hacked firmware version to accomplish this?

you can set the same port number on the port range...
as for the assigning a specific port for a specific machine, I doubt if it's possible with the a Linksys router...you may need a hacked firmware for this. Or you can DMZ just on the Linux..

Port forwarding versus UPNP on Linksys router

I use ichat3 to videochat with my two sons, both of whom use Trillian on their PCs. Just lately, successful connections have become a rarity - much less than 50% - either failing to start the chat entirely or without audio.
I have a Linksys WAG54G router (usually connected either wirelessly or via Ethernet to my G4 PowerBook) with UPNP enabled. Yesterday, it seemed that I could connect to the Apple test sites much more reliably if I disabled UPNP. For example, I consistently had no sound from appleu3test01 with UPNP enabled but it worked properly every time I disabled UPNP.
I am thinking of assigning a static IP address to the PB and changing my router set-up to Port Forwarding in the hope of a better success rate. I've looked at the WAG54G section of the portforward.com website and the suggested iChat settings are:
Single port page:
Application     Ext port      Int port     Protocol     IP address
ichat1     5060     5060     Both
ichat2     5190     5190     Both
ichat3     5220     5220     Both
ichat4     5222     5222     Both
ichat5     5678     5678     Both
Port range page:
Application     Start     End     TCP/UDP     IP address
ichat6     16384     16384     Both
Some questions before I proceed:
1 Shouldn't the end port for entry ichat6 be 16403?
2 Are 5220 and 5222 only for Jabber users?
3 What about other ports such as 5353 and 5297/8 - I don't use Bonjour but I do have other Macs on the same network?
4 Is there any advantage in specifying TCP or UDP for the ports that only need one?
5 Any reason to suppose that port forwarding will in fact be better than UPNP?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Dave

Hi Dave,
Well spotted.
iChat6 should be 16384 as start and 16403 as end.
In fact the others would be more secure if:
ichat1 5060 5060 UDP
ichat2 5190 5190 Both
ichat3 5220 5220 TCP
ichat4 5222 5222 TCP
ichat5 5678 5678 UDP
They were pointed at the Protocols that are actually used.
Re 2 Yes 5220 and 5222 are for Jabber (in Fact Jabber also uses port 5223 for SSL logins All of which are on TCP)
Re 3 Bonjour is a handy way to do file transfers but someone does have to be there to accept and deliver file (compared to file sharing which does not) If you are not using it you will not need 5297, 5298 or 5353 on the variuos UDP and/or TCP protocols they use
RE 4 See security above.
Re 5 If you have multiple computers UPnP is best as Port Forwadring on many domestic devices does not allow the same ports to be forwarded to different IP addresses (Computers)
For more Security some devices do allow you to set the number of devices away from the UPnP device that it can be "seen" (Descibed as Hops and usually set to a default of 4) I can not find a palce to change this on my WRK54G Wireless router)
