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.

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 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.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

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.

What is wrong with Creative Cloud Connection Update

What is wrong with Creative Cloud Connection Update? I've tried 25 times to update but it does not work? Can you please help?

I opened my Adobe Application Manager, and I saw there was an update for Creative Cloud Connection and pressed update. When the installation was at 49% a message came and said: Please close te following applications to continue: - Adobe Creative Cloud Connection. And a buttom: Cncel update or Retry.
I have Retry 50 times, and it says the same.
I have restart my computer several times, and the same happened when I come to 49% of the installation.
What is the problem??

EA4500 Cloud Connect Problem - Can't rollback firmware

Please excuse me if this has been posed. I've searched the forums for solutions ad nauseum without succes.
I have an EA4500 with the most current firmware: Ver.2.1.38.138880 - upgraded on July 27th. I could login to Cloud Connect online for a while, but the other day, when I tried to go to advanced settings, the web page never came up.
I found the rollback instructions (http://goo.gl/tHQYF) but they're not working. Specifically, step 3, entering the IP or myrouter.local fails to bring up the router -- aka I can't get to the firmware to roll it back. I have done a reset to factory (still has the firmware version listed above) and I've reinstalled the cisco connect that helps set up the router initially.
I would be ok if cisco cloud connect worked... I would be ok with rolling it back as well, but it won't let me. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Robert-

Is the router powered and disconnected from your modem? Yes
Did you do a full reset of the router (push and hold the reset button for 10+ seconds? Yes
Is the Cisco logo status light constant on? Yes
Is the PC hardwired connected by its network port to a network port of your router? Yes
Are other network ports, including wireless, of the PC disabled? No
Is the PC set to either DHCP or has it an IP address and subnetmask in range with the router (e.g 192.168.1.100 / 255.255.255.0)? Yes
As I mentioned, it just stopped logging into www.ciscoconnectcloud.com. When I try to launch it from the 'advanced' settings of the Cisco Connect program it fails to find the website: 192.168.1.1. I've not made any recent changes to the device. I do have a USB HD attached, but detached for the reset etc. and have not reconnected, except to try login with it on once.

Port forwarding but can only connect to wifi in Bridge Mode

Hi
Our ISP is TalkTalk and we use their Fibre service which connects through a BT Open Reach Modem. The TalkTalk router seemed to causing drop outs in wifi on my macbook pro so I bought an Airport Time Capsule for the wifi router and to back up my mac.
We aren't issued with PPPoE details and the advice from the TalkTalk community was to connect with the Router in Bridge Mode. This has worked a treat with the various Apple and non Apple items we have in out house except one.
We have security cameras which we control through a Windows laptop and can view one out phones. To make this happen we have to set up port forwarding. However, we can't do this as it's in Bridge Mode (as far as I understand).
I'm afraid my knowledge of these things is very basic so I'm hoping that someone will have an easy answer to this. Anyone got any advice on how I can make this pretty white box do its stuff please?
Thanks in advance!

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 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

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.

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.

SSH works internally, but not externally, and ping works both inside and outside of the network, web browsing also works fine. I just can't seem to get to anything inside the network from outside of the network. What am I doing wrong?

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>

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.

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).

Problem with Creative Cloud Connection Preview app Mac

I can't get the Creative Cloud Connection preview app to download on Mac OS 10.6.8. The option doesn't show up in AAM and I keep bouncing back and forth on the website when I click Learn More. Is there something I'm doing wrong or not doing? I've got files in Creative Cloud that I can access through the website, but it's a real pain to have to download/upload every time I want to work on them.
I've attached a screenshot of AAM and the desktop app doesn't show up.
Anyone else experience problems with this?

Unfortunately, Creative Cloud Connection for Mac only runs on OSX 10.7 and 10.8

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
