HFS + Router +need help

[megabyte366]

just download the software and did all the stuff i need to do.. made an static ip,,, ping it and it responded..... in the open browser... the static ip showed up there with port 800.... did the test and it's a no go!!!!!

the box said... hfs 22.d (152)
test failed: server does not answer.

you are behind a router.
Ensure it is configured to forward port 80 to your computer.

You must config a portforwarding of port 80 in your router to your static pc ip-adresse of your HFS-Server PC. And if you want to connect to your server from or over the internet, you must have an Dynamic DNS Account.

Pit: I did that... in the linksys under app and games... put hfs  port 80  port 80  192.168.1.13    both     enable...

In your fist post you wrote something about port 800

[megabyte366]

yes i did...... been switching around to see if i can get something to go...... still having no luck.....

[Pit]

Your server work at port 80? or is this port used by another programm?

[megabyte366]

not sure... i've tried a bunch of port to see if i can get them to work..... everything is coming back after the test.... you are behind a router.
Ensure it is configured to forward port 80 to your computer.

don't have a clue....   I added you to msn...... if you want to chat... the one you have on profile..

[Pit]

It´s possible that your isp not allow the port 80 to run your own server.

[megabyte366]

i asked them... they said that they are not blocking anything....

[Pit]

Do you have an Dynamic DNS Entry for your server. if yes - can you tell me the URL to your server?

Did you have a showed here http://www.portforward.com/routers.htm for your router?

[megabyte366]

if you are talking about something like no-ip  then it's megafile.no-ip.info

[Pit]

This website is not reachable.

1. On which port your server runs now?

2. And what is your public ip?

3. Do you use a firewall?

[megabyte366]

have it on port 1900   24.224.66.116

[Pit]

In your router you have now an portfowardingrule for port 1900 to your server pc?

[megabyte366]

don't see a place where i can add a rule.. in the linksys firmware
