Port forwarding for Warcraft 3 - no other posts have helped me solve this :

Hi everyone,
At risk of flogging a dead horse, I am having trouble with port forwarding/port mapping on my new AEBS and need help.
Warcraft 3 requires ports 6112-6119 open, which I had successfully set up through the Router Management Interface of my router (Speedstream 536 v6). Since I've set up the airport and run the router through it, I've been unable to host/join games on Warcraft, due to ports not being open.
I've since gone back in to the router setup and attempted to configure it. I've tried sending the open port traffic to the base station, to the computer, and a combination of each, but nothing seems to fix it.
Aside from port forwarding, it is working fine. My internet connection is flawless (a little slower than before airport ... or perhaps my imagination?), my Wii and XBOX360 both find the network fine (360 hard wired over ethernet due to wireless security issues ... see other threads!), but I can't play my warcraft games.
The help system (and some of the other threads on here) direct me to the Airport Utility -> Advanced -> Port Mapping. The problem is that on my advanced pane I only see:
- Logging and SNMP
- Bonjour
- IPv6
I've tried restarting the AEBS but get no joy. Is there something I'm doing that is fundamentally wrong? Can anyone help me? I'm not sharing the connection with any other computers, just wii and xbox, if that makes any difference.
If there's anything else you'd need to know, please ask me.
I look forward to your responses, and any help is most appreciated.
Regards,
GH

The IP address of my iMac is 10.0.0.1; the address of the Speedtouch is 10.0.0.138; the AEBS is 10.0.0.2, and the xbox360 (which the speedtouch sees as "Generic device") is 10.0.0.4.
On the speedtouch setup page, there's a lot of long-winded gibberish which I don't really understand, but perhaps it'll be of some use to someone more knowledgable on the topic. Each device has the following information:

  • ISync/Bluetooth/SE k700i trouble - no other posts have helped!

    Hi,
    Buetooth file transfer works fine. My phone (Sony Ericsson K700i) and computer recognise each other fine, and can transfer files.
    But...
    iSync cannot update the phone. It was working fine, then suddenly stopped. No idea why. I tried resetting up all Bluetooth stuff from scratch. No luck. I have tried everything else I can think of (am an experianced Mac user - but this beats me). Also none of the other fixes I have spotted on these forums seem to help.
    When I try and sync i Sync says this:
    "Saturday, 13 May 2006 16:08
    [RedHavoc_K700i] Connection to the phone failed.
    Please make sure that your phone is turned on. If this error occurs again, please restart your phone.

    and the phone says this:

    Any ideas please??
    Thanks

    Hi, I'm new to this forum, but here goes.
    I now own an SE750i and it Sync's fine, but I do have a problem I could use some help with. but later.
    My previous phone was the SE700i and had lots of BT issues, but was able to use it well provided I 'serviced' it regularly. My problem was similar to the one below, with, I think, the same message. I found the fix on another forum, sorry can't remember where.
    The fix:
    Delete
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.isync.plist
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
    ~/Library/Application Support/SyncService
    Then I:
    1. removed any pairing info on the s700i and the Mac.
    2. initiated pairing from S700i - not the Mac.
    3. Once paired, started iSync.
    4. Options to sync address book, calendar etc appear (should have 3 options)
    Sometimes a restart was necessary prior to step 3.
    Hope this helps.

  • Port forwarding for WOW

    Hello,
    Just a TC today and cant find any info on how to port forward for the TC. Anyone have any clues?

    Sorry, I don't have a TC, but the port mapping (forwarding) steps should be the same as for the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn).
    AEBSn - Port Mapping Setup
    To setup port mapping on an 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn), either connect to the AEBSn's wireless network or temporarily connect directly, using an Ethernet cable, to one of the LAN port of the AEBSn, and then use the AirPort Utility, in Manual Setup, to make these settings:
    1. Reserve a DHCP-provided IP address for the host device.
    Internet > DHCP tab
    o On the DHCP tab, click the "+" (Add) button to enter DHCP Reservations.
    o Description: <enter the desired description of the host device>
    o Reserve address by: MAC Address
    o Click Continue.
    o MAC Address: <enter the MAC (what Apple calls Ethernet ID if you are using wired or AirPort ID if wireless) hardware address of the host computer>
    o IPv4 Address: <enter the desired IP address>
    o Click Done.
    2. Setup Port Mapping on the AEBSn.
    Advanced > Port Mapping tab
    o Click the "+" (Add) button
    o Service: <choose the appropriate service from the Service pop-up menu>
    o Public UDP Port(s): <enter the appropriate UDP port values>

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Home Hub 3 Port forwarding for Netgear Stora

    Hi, 
    I have had a Negear Stora on my home network with a HH3 for about 6 months. Up untill about 10 days ago, all was good, however now when i try to access it remotely via the mystora.com web portal, i am getting the following error messages
      Stora is Online,
      but cannot be accessed remotely.
      Your Stora is not currently accessible. This may be for several reasons:
      • Your ISP is not allowing Internet traffic to your Stora
      • A firewall is blocking internet access to your Stora
      • Port forwarding is not correctly configured on your router, or UPnP is disabled
    I have enabled UPnP and have turned of the firewall off, but still no joy. 
    Is anybody else having this issue? Can somebody please guide me threw the port forwarding as i dont want to braak anything else.
    Thanks in advance

  • 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 L2TP/IPSec VPN Behind Verizon Actiontec MI424WR-GEN2 Rev. E v20.21.0.2

    I've got a NAS setup with various services running on custom ports to help minimize exposure (especially to script kiddies). I've tested everything both internally and externally to confirm they all work, and even had someone at a remote location confirm accessibility as well.  Port forward configurations performed on the Actiontec are working well. 
    I installed an L2TP/IPSec VPN server, tested internally and it connected successfully.  So for all intents & purposes, this validates that the VPN server is correctly configured to accept inbound connections and functioning correctly.
    I logged into the Verizon Actiontec MI424WR router, setup port forwarding for UDP ports 500, 1701 & 4500.
    Note: I added the AH & ESP protocols based on what I saw on the built-in L2TP/IPSec rules
    With the port forwarding in place, I tested VPN externally but it didn't connect.
    I've done the following so far to no avail:
    Double & triple checked the port forwards, deleted & recreated the rules a few times to be sure
    There are no other pre-existing L2RP/IPSec port forward rules or otherwise conflicting port forward rules (e.g.: another rule for ports 500, 1701 or 4500)
    There was an L2TP port triggering rule enabled, that I toggled on and off with no change
    Verified the firewall on VPN server had an exclusion for L2TP, or that the firewall is off. (Firewall is off to reduce a layer of complexity, but it worked internally to begin with so I doubt that's the issue.)
    Since it works internally, and there are no entries in the logs on the device indicating inbound connections, I'm convinced its an issue with the Verizon Actiontec router.  But unfortunately, I'm not sure what else to try or where else to look to troubleshoot this.  For instance, is there a log on the router that I can view in real time (e.g.: tail) that would show me whether or not the inbound connection attempt is reaching the device, and whether or not the device allowed or blocked it?
    My router details:
    Verizon Actiontec
    MI424WR-GEN2
    Revision E
    Firmware 20.21.0.2
    Verizon Actiontec built-in L2TP/IPSec rule templates.  They're not currently in use, but are baked into the firmware for easy configuration/selection from a drop down menu.

    normally a vpn on that router, will have a GRE tunneling protocol as well.
    two ways to build the PF rules,
    Manually
    Preconfigured
    I know the preconfigured VPN rules will do the GRE protocol as well, but if you do it by hand you can't get it.

  • 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?

  • How can I setup port forwarding for RDP (3389) using MHS291LVW?

    Hi,
    I went into my MHS291LVW and I enabled port forwarding.  I didn't see an option for Remote Desktop (RDP) so I added a custom application called RDP and I set "Global Port" and "Private Port" to port number 3389 and I set it as TCP/UDP and then entered the local IP (192.168.1.135) of the PC I want to connect to.  I made my local PC use a static IP so this 192.168.1.135 will never change.
    Then when I go under "About Jetpack" I see that there is a WAN IP address listed; so I wrote this down and then I tried to connect remotely to this PC from outside the Verizon Jetpack network but it didn't work.
    Then the strange thing is when I go to Google and type "what's my IP", Google shows me a different external WAN IP address that Verizon Jetpack showed me in the admin web interface.  Anyway, I tried this WAN IP address that Google gave me but it still didn't connect to my local PC.
    Can someone please help me in figuring out why this is not working?
    I've setup port forwarding on plenty of other routers (Linksys, Netgear, etc.), but I never tried it on a Verizon Jetpack MHS291LVW but it should work the same so I'm not sure why this is not working for me.
    Thank you!

    > If I can't use the "Microsoft Windows RDP" service because of the private IP; would I be able to use a software like "TeamViewer" to gain access to my PC?
    Yes.  This is how a VPN server works around the private IP address restrictions of the VZW network.  It will work and you will be able to access anything that is centrally connected to a VPN server. 
    > Also, if I were to take the VPN option and setup a VPN server on the PC
    Not on the remote PC silly guy.  Hosting a VPN from within the VZW network wont do you any good as its IP will be masked by the NAT firewall.  You must setup a VPN server off of the VZW network for it to work.  That way when you remote into the VPN server it is already outside of the VZW NAT that is restricting you in the first place.  There are many VPN vendors that you can test out and pay access for if you don't have any interest in setting up one on your own.  Some are free where others charge more money for more bandwidth and customization features.
    > If I were to try to connect to this PC on the JetPack side from an external PC on a different network I don't know how I would be able to access it since the JetPack IP address is private.
    The idea is that everything rests on the VPN server when remote connections are made.  The Jetpack PC, VPN Server and your current local PC all connect to the VPN server so everything is then local communication.  The VPN will make it appear as though everything is virtually connected to the same appliance even though they are physically separated by whatever distance you want.

  • 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".
