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).

  • X3500 Port Forwarding Stops Randomly, must Reboot

    Hi,
    Hoping someone else has come across this and found a resolution...  I have a very new X3500 router setup within a small business.  I have approx 15 port forwarding rules configured - most of which are standard ones such as 80, 443, 25, etc.
    For whatever reason, the router randomly (although now happening more frequently - every couple days) is dropping any port forwarding requests.  I can still login to the router's web interface, I still have internet access, etc., it's just incoming connections that seem to stop (I.e. Mail stops flowing and users cannot connect via RDP, etc.).
    I can fix this immediately by rebooting the router, however obviously I shouldn't need to.
    Linksys Support have advised me to untick 'Filter Anon Internet Requests' and to set the MTU to 1400.  Neither have made any difference.  I'm currently going around in circles with Live Chat again...
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Yep, recently started having this issue too. Router has been in place for almost a yead and just in the last week its dropping the port forwarding and requires reboot to work.
    I tried the same things as you.
    Id like to follow this thread for a solution.
    I have also just set up another site with the same router - Hope this doesnt happen to that one too.

  • 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?

  • Linksys 5-port Switch limited connection.

    Hello...  I am having a weird problem.  I have a new linksys 5-port switch, I believe model GEB1040.  Here is the path of internet connection.  Starts with Cox Communications High Speed Internet, Motorola Surfboard modem, then the Linksys Switch.  In the switch I have three computers connected.  The Surfboard Modem is wired into the uplink slot.  The three wired computers are wired into slots 1, 2 and 3 on the switch.  Of the three computers, two show limited or no connection.  Those two are both dell computers with one being a notebook Inspiron 5160 and the other being a desktop Dimension 1100.  The third computer is, I believe a "mut" that was built by someone, with an MSI motherboard.  That third computer works fine.  That leads me to believe that some how the Dell computer and the linksys switch don't seem to like each other.  How would one have anything to do with the other? 
    Are there settings that I can change to get this to work properly?  Does anyone know the address to the switch, ie 192.168.*.*?
    Thanks.

    After reading your post it seems that your linksys switch is not a managed switch and it does not have any such address(192.168.*.*)...As you have connected the modem to the switch and three wired computers are wired into slots 1, 2 and 3 on the switch only one computer will be able to connect to the Internet as switch is not managing any DHCP and it can only provide the IP Address to one computer which is drawn from the modem...In simple words you don't need a switch you need a router...Replace the switch with a router...

  • 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.

  • RV082 port forwarding limited to 30 entries ?

    Hello,
    we use RV082 as main gateway and need to open/forward around 50 ports to inside. But during setting of the rules I got an error message "The max of Port Range Forwarding is 30 entries. You can't add any more.".
    In the online help is explicitely said "4. Click the Add to List button, and configure as many entries as you would like."
    How can we setup more than 30 port forwarding rules ?
    If it is this a sotfware bug, can this be corrected ?
    Regards,
    Petr Svoboda

    Petr, I agree with tekliu.  I use the UPnP rules with UPnP disabled for all of my port forwarding, unless a range is needed.  They should not cause any more exposure than regular Forwarding rules, and if you use port translation they will reduce your exposure.
    The only differences:
    Forwarding allows port ranges
    Forwarding has a "Port Triggering" section
    UPnP allows port translation (because it's only single port at a time, not a range)
    UPnP has unlimited entries

  • Port forwarding limitations

    Hei all
    I have used the 10 available forwarding slots on my wrt54gl and wonder if there is any possibility to extend the list beyond 10?
    Mvh

    You'll need a 3rd party firmware for that. Then you have more slots in the gui and you can configure even more through scripts.
    Search for wrt54g on wikipedia to find a list of firmwares.

  • 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 .....  
    Solved!

    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?

  • Port Forwarding To Two Macs with Port 22 limitations

    This is another port forwarding/port 22 issue and I've look around and not seen an answer to my specific problem.  I work for a business that has an in-house ad system that runs on a Mac Mini.  I have been accessing that Mac Mini remotely because we set up port forwarding through the Linksys rounter that is at the business using port 22.  This is the only port that works for this connection to the mini and the software.
    We are now adding a second Mac Mini to send the ads to a different set of monitors.  I can't set up port forward to the new mini on the same port so I don't know how to connect to this mini remotely.  Is there a way to get into the first mini through port 22 and then somehow communite to the second one through the first?  Is there another way to do port forwarding...or have the linksys router switch from one mini to the other when a request comes in?  There will only be one remote computer trying to reach either Mac Mini so there will never be simultaneous traffic coming in.  Any help would be appreciated!
    The linksys router is critical to the business becasue a host of other devices are forwarded though it as well.
    Thank you.

    Having set up my IP camera with HH4 successfully, I've now got another one and would like to set it up as well. I gave it a unique, static IP address which my router can see fine. When I try to set up port forwarding, I get a message saying:
    "The game or application you’ve selected conflicts with an application (IP Cam 1) you’ve already assigned to another device. Please remove the other application or select the same device."
    I am not being given the option to select the same device.
    I'm now wondering if port forwarding to two identical devices actually works in principle with HH4? Has anyone else done this?
    If in the Home Hub 4 A you go to
    Advanced Settings
    Firewall
    Port Fowarding
    Manage Games and Applications 
    You get the following statement:
    "Each game or application can be assigned to only one device on your home network"
    I would think that the only way round your problem is to have each Camera running a different application or the same application with a different name.  
    Does the remote browser app need to know the application name  or just the device name ?
    If you think about how Port Forwarding needs to function you need a way whereby  the remote user needs to be able to tell the Hub what Camera to talk to.

  • Linksys e1200 PORT RANGE FORWARDING is not working

    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.

  • 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".

  • 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.

    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&...
