| 574742 | 2007-07-31 23:25:00 | i recently post something bout a website and port forwarding. I failed to get it to work and i dont think i provided enough info. I was just reading the Xtra BB T&C it says residential BB was not designed for webservers, yet it doesnt say i cant have one. anyway..... I have a odd network setup for my household in being that there are two routers. first one is the free xtra BB modem (D-Link DSL502T) which operates on the default 10.1.1.x private network. Now my second router is connected to this with the DHCP IP of 10.1.1.4 (it wont change as no other device is connected to the 10.x.x.x network) My second router is a Netgear WGR614v6 wireless router and its on the default of 192.168.1.x. So the D-link is connected into the Netgears WAN port. My PC which will b a "server has the static IP of 192.168.1.7. default gateway is the netgear router and DNS is the same. Internet works without a hitch. Now the webpage i want is a program called HFS (http file server) www.rejetto.com So i will set it to use port 80. Now with Xtra BB i have a Dynamically assigned IP, so i have signed up to 2 different dynmic DNS sites (no-ip.com and dyndns.org) both of my routers can use dyndns.......which one should i input the settings for, the Netgear, the Dl-link or just use the client software on the server?. Port forwarding: as everything comes thru the d-link, i will have to port forward port 80 to the netgear router (is this right?) then the netgear will have to port forward port 80 to the computer, is this right? as the went i go to http://xxx.dyndns.org (xxx being my host name i registered with dyndns) it shud come up with the HFS site, not a password prompt to the dlink router. wow my longest post, i hope that enough info, and any help would be absoluted great Cheers |

| 574743 | 2007-08-01 00:57:00 | You'll have to set up the Dynamic DNS on the D-Link, as you want to associate your external IP that Xtra gives you with your DynDNS account. The router/modem will use it's current WAN address for updating the DNS. As for the port forwarding, that looks OK to me, although maybe you could set up the Netgear as a DMZ on the D-Link, so it sees all traffic, then forward only from the Netgear. That would let you just muck around with the Netgear router if you wanted to add other ports. |
