HFS + Router +need help

[Pit]

Did you have showed here http://www.portforward.com/routers.htm for your router?
here you get many infos about the most routerconfigurations.

You must forwarding the port 1900 to your pc with the HFS-Server

a ping to your adress and a portscan gives me no results

[Pit]

Do you have a second pc in your network and can you connect from this pc over the local network to the server?

[megabyte366]

yes i have a 2nd cpu... but it runs thru the router for internet connection... at the other end of the house.

Have you tried shutting down your firewall?
Also, have you tried moving the server computer to DMZ in router?
Does the server computer have a static ip in windows, like 192.168.1.50?
I have a WRT54G. Its usually pretty easy to set up.

I have the similar problems before just want to shared here , in my case i did the setting in ADSL Modem (my brand is D-Link) then self test successful ! even the port forward are set correctly in Router .

1 . I set the Lan Clients to ~ I.P 192.168.1.2  , See attachment filename "Capture3"

2. Then I set the DMZ enable with same I.P 192.168.1.2 , See attachment filename "Capture4"

After that i do Self Test , it work perfectly till now .

Hope this can help you to solved your problems .Just give a Try .

Good Luck

1. do you have any other server software working on your computer?
2. did you actually tried another port, like 2000, by setting both hfs and the rule on your router for this same port?
3. can the other PC in your lan see your hfs?
4. did you try switching your software firewall off?

[megabyte366]

1. firewall on router..... under security... there is no way to enable it or disable the firewall......

2. the sys... vista... i just did a fresh install... and have all the updates from windows....

3. just went to back cpu and type in 192.168.1.174 and hit enter and went to the hfs software...

4. I went and download this free file... just for kicks..

Code: [Select]

http://www.pcwintech.com/node/8 and tried it.... to see if there was something that i missed....

5. man this thing is kicking my butt!!!!

[rejetto]

1. 2. they are answers, but not related to my questions
3. in your screenshots you are forwarding to 192.168.1.50, so why are you now typing 174 as address for your hfs?
4. it looks nice
5. i can see it's sore
