587036 2007-09-02 02:44:00 I just got my new modem, the Gen II d-link G604t, and in the 10.1.1.1 I can't see an option for port forwarding.

I know how to port forward, on the first gen G604t it was a piece of cake, as it had an option for port forwarding and was pretty straight forward.

This one though....

Anyone have this modem/know how to do it?

587037 2007-09-02 03:16:00 Is it under Virtual Servers? CYaBro (73)
587038 2007-09-02 03:28:00 If it is, where do I put the ports?? I need these ports forwarded support.microsoft.com

Here is what's under Virtual Servers:

587040 2007-09-02 04:14:00 If thats a D-Link unit acquired from Telecom then it may be worth flashing the firmware to the Australian version found on the D-Link Australian site. The firmware used by Telecom is pretty crap, I used Australian firmware on my crappy 502G and now its running really well with my Smoothwall box. Pete O'Neil (6584)
587041 2007-09-02 04:40:00 Under Virtual servers you need to go to User then there will be a button and u click Add and then it will give you options to put in the ports. w000t (11562)

Will try that


Have a look at this (www.portforward.com) page

I've looked at that, that is not the same as mine. That is for the first gen modem.

How? And what will it do? Improve speed?

587043 2007-09-02 08:22:00 I found this:

www.dlink.com.au

What ports to open for Xbox and Xbox 360

Step 1. Set up your Xbox with static IP address. For example:
IP Address: 10.1.1.2
Subnet Mask: 255.0.0.0
Default Gateway: 10.1.1.1 (your router's LAN address)
Primary DNS: 4.2.2.2 (or whichever your ISP is using)
Secondary DNS: 202.129.64.198 (or whichever your ISP is using)

...continues...

I thought I knew how to do this...but how the hell do I find out what numbers to put up there ^^^???

Type in the IP address of the Xbox (e.g. 10.1.1.2)

My Xbox has a ip address? Man, I'm gonna have to get on and have a look.

Step 6. Enter the name for this entry under Rule Name (e.g. XboxLive). Then select the necessary protocol (TCP or UDP). Specify the necessary port number in all fields including the Port Map.
You will need to enter the following ports:
UDP 88
UDP 3074
TCP 3074

Can I choose TCP, UDP and put 88 for port start and port map, then 3074 for port end and port map end?

This is way more confusing than when I did it last year.

587044 2007-09-02 08:39:00 And yes, third post, but I just got through all those instructions (not as hard as they sound ) and have got the ports forwarded.

Thanks for all the help, but I'm still interested in the Australian firmware.

587045 2007-09-02 09:15:00 Great, more problems. I had it working and all set up for the console IP as 10.1.1.5, but now it's changed (it's on automatic) to 10.1.1.3.

I'd set it to manual on the console, but then it says there's a conflict when I enter 10.1.1.5 for ip, 255.0.0.0 for mask, and 10.1.1.1 for gateway.

WTF am I doing wrong, it's starting to **** me off.
