Linksys Wireless Router :: E1000 / Port Forwarding Does Not Work Because Only One Or Other Xboxes Will Get Open NAT
Nov 14, 2011
I am having a NAT issue with my two xboxes. The router is an e1000 v2.1 firmware 2.1.02. One xbox is wired into the router and the other has a wireless adapter. The wireless xbox gets open nat automatically, while the wired one's nat is strict. If i mess with DMZ and turn UPnP off i can get the wired to be open but the wireless one to be strict. Also port forwarding does not seem to work because only one or the other xboxes will get an open NAT. I do have the the correct ports in the port triggering section set to on but that does not seem like it works.
I am at my wits end with cisco and linksys. I have had three different linksys routers over the years.I have a WRT160N, and now I think I made the mistake of buying cisco's latest product E3000. I thought by now their Upnp would be worked out for 180 dollars. But sadly no even their most expensive latest product doesn't do what I want. All I want is to hook up two xbox 360s and have open NAT which is what NAT is supposed to do. Still the NAT does not open up for both systems simultaneously which is absurd. I have a sb6120 for a modem. Both xboxes are hardwired to the router. Upnp should be enabled as this is part of the router. Also its job should be able to handle the two xboxes properly with one ip address that is its sole purpose.
I've tried one in dmz the other with static ip with forwarded ports that equals one open one strict.I've tried upnp enabled alone that equals one open one moderate.I've tried everything else the plan and simple fact is that it should work with upnp on and the nat in the e3000 will take care of the allocation of renaming ports to the single external ip address. By definition.
So I have two xbox 360's plugged directly into my dir-655 router with Ethernet cables. I have no idea how to port forward these, correctly and everything I try ends up with my router being reset. I don't have a pc connected to the router, only a wireless laptop.
opening ports for multiple xbox 360's (Black Ops is what we are trying to play).
One thing I do know is that when I tried portforward.com's walk-thru for port forwarding, when I enter the ports into the dir-655 port-forward menu, I can no longer connect to Black Ops at all, it says servers are down (WHICH THEY ARE NOT I CHECKED).
I set up my new E4200 to forward port 7300 to a computer on my LAN. I had this working on my Linksys WRT160N and copied all of the settings so they are identical to those on that router but forwarding does not work. I have tried single port forwarding, multiple port forwarding and even DMZ with the same lack of results.
IPort forwarding simply does not work with this rounter on Comcast. I called comcast to see if they were blocking ports and they insist they ARE NOT.So what can it be? Was on FIOS with their modem/router combo and port forwarding worked like a charm with them.I've tried single port forwarding, port range forwarding, yada.
I am using the correct internal IP address on the machine I want to enable port forwarding on..Latest firmware is installed 1.04 or whatever (just purchased the router and updated during the Cisco Connect install on the 29th). Guess I should go find a cheaper router that actually works...
i have a WRT160N V3 and DMZ or Portforwarding dont work.i tried locally following
WAN_PC-> WAN-PORT -> WRT160N V3 -> LOCAL-PORT -> LOCAL_PC The WAN_PC has a Static-IP 192.168.1.2, Subnet 255.255.255.0 The WAN-PORT has a Static-IP 192.168.1.1, Subnet 255.255.255.0 ON the WRT160N V3 i configured a DMZ on 192.168.0.100.and Disabled the Firewall. On the LOCAL_PC (192.168.0.100:8888) is a Apache
So when i type 192.168.1.1:8888 on the WAN_PC i get NOOO Website from the Apache on 192.168.0.100:8888?
I have done this before on this exact model about a month ago, so it's still fresh in my mind on port forwarding. (note, I'm using firmware version: 1.0.00) I am running a windows 7 computer wirelessly using this router.What I do for port forwarding is type in router IP (192.168.2.1) in internet explorer, type in "default" as username and "admin" as password. I click the "applications and gaming" link which brings me to port range forwarding.
I fill in my port info, in this case a mine craft server running on 25565. I set up two of the same ports, different names both at the same port, one running TCP and the other UDP, when it worked previously the "both" option did not work correctly. (I used to have a private network that a buddy of mine set up a while back, and I doubt he remembers what to do and I don't know where the manual is to make a new one, searching the internet sends me spam of people asking questions.)
I read somewhere it may have something to do with DHCP server settings conflicting with my IP. My IPv4 address reads 192.168.2.100, and the DHCP settings says the same.
Type: WRVS4400N Wireless-N Gigabit Security Router with VPN.I bought it last week. Its single port forwarding has an issue. I can only use that function for a couple or hours. Then the forwarding does not work. I have to reboot the router to make it available again.
I have a PS3, and i play allot of video games such as all COD game especially MW2. It says i have a strict or moderate NAT. My router is in the same room as the PS3, so i should have a Open Nat.Also i have another question, i bought this Epson printer from Best Buy, i was wondering if I can connect to it Wireless, but i think i cant connect to it wireless cause i dont see the WiFi Certification on the printer or anything hints that it can connect wireless
I've been searching off and on for the past couple months trying to figure out what we could do to our router to open our NAT, after having both the PS3 and Xbox 360 tell me I've got moderate NAT. I tried a DMZ with my PS3 having a static IP, I tried UPnP. I messed with firewall settings, to no avail.
I recently found something that did work however, on Google. Basically what happened was, I needed to reset the router and change a few settings on top of enabling UPnP I didn't know about(CTS Protection, remote management) how they could have anything to do with translation of data.
But like I said, after doing a huge step by step walk through, I was able to get open NAT in the network tests of both PS3 and 360(even though the PS3 obviously still says Type 2. It used to say Type 2, but it also used to have an error code at the bottom of the page). I've checked in games on each console, and they tell me I've got open NAT.
Now I still have one tiny problem. Red Dead Redemption. I play Red Dead Redemption online with two friends(who, incidentally, have the same router as me), and we haven't been able to communicate if we were using routers. We still can't, but I'm thinking that it's not my router anymore. I'm thinking his router has incorrect settings. Am I correct?
I have a linksys E1000 and i'm trying to open my NAT for xbox live. I mostly need it for call of duty: black ops because i cant connect to friends and i lag out of lobbies with friends. I've been trying to open my NAT for hours and nothing will work. ive tried forwarding ports, DMZ, UPnP, MTU sizes, and security things.
I tried forwarding ports 80, 443, 7001, 8888, 9901, and 9911 on my Linksys E1000 router but whenever I check my ports always come back as closed. This happens even why I try to enable DMZ.
I want to port forward, so i can broadcast using icecast but it requires me to access my router. I follow the steps from Setting a Static IP Address in Windows 7 - PortForward.com but from step 4 where i have to access my router in my browser,i write my ip which is: 10.0.0.4 according to cmd, and i just get a "Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to 10.0.0.4" message.I have attached a picture showing info from my cmd. It's in danish but i don't think that should be a problem.
I have a E1000 and already for the longest time I've been trying basically everything possible to get my NAT open from being strict.I've looked around and tried everything I came across including the port forwarding. The only thing different from what I have and from what I have seen is that my router's ip is 192.168.0.1 instead of 192.168.1.1 that everyone else seems to have. I don't know if that affects my NAT in any certain way either. What I can possbily do or what might be the problem as to why I can't get my NAT opened?
A lady gave me E1000 along with an IMB Thinkpad because her husband was the main user on the internet. I have an intel iMac 10.4.11, DSL. I have not yet connected to either device via the router. I am new to wireless routers. I have been to the configuration page
I can not get my password to work. The threads that I have read, requires a Ethernet cable to be connected but I have a wireless netgear card on the administrator PC how can I find the password to my E1000 router to verify and to change router settings
I bought a Linksys E1000 wireless router a year or so back. it was loaded onto a computer that no longer works. i have the router and the box but no disc or manual. My laptop and ipad are working fine with the router but i can't get my iphone hooked up and dont think i have the correct password. I dont have any software on my laptop to even figure it out. What can i do to get my phone to use the router?
I am about a level 4 maybe (10 being highest) when it comes to network configuration.I know what a router is, an IP addreess (external ones from ISP that is) and how to get around a little bit like how to access wireless config , edit properties on network connections and run ipconfig..My setup....I have a cable modem with 18mbs line...hooked into a Linksys E1000 wireless (N) router.From that I have 3 laptops setup (and a desktop thats never used).(none of whats next may be important but added it just in case)
Laptop a. is hardlined into wireless router (so I can edit config) and will be main machine it runs Vista Laptop b. is connected to wirless connection from router and will main #2 Laptop c. is connected to wireless router Desktop is connected to wireless router (all others above run XP as OS)
My wife is running some webcam software that uses our internal IP address for its connection.It is no problem for her to connect her cam to the site with one laptop (any of the above) but when she tries to go to laptop b. and run another connection it says "You are currently broadcasting From This IP and cannot start another connection".
p.s. We have also tested bandwidth connection over and over on many sites (via browser) and it seems that when a cam is setup and the bandwidth is displayed what comes from / to the cam is WAYY slower than what we get in our tests...
1. I set a router admin password different from WiFi password(passphrase).
2. I run my Cisco Connect app and it asks me to change my router admin password. If I don't change it - I can not use Cisco Connect app. If I provide my WiFi password then it changes my router admin password.
Maybe it was done to have a "simple" solution - 1 password for everything. But maybe its a bug because router admin password should be different from WiFi password fro security reasons.
Region : Austria Model : TL-MR3420 Hardware Version : V2 Firmware Version : TL-MR3420_V2_121206 ISP : 3
I am using a MR3420 V2 together with a E398 modem. The connection works well, but I can't do any port forwarding (virtual server). Using another router (Tiny Dovado) with the same E398 modem works flawlessly to forward ports.
I have 2 xbox 360's I'm trying to connect to my E3000 wirelessly. I've tried several different things, but I always end up with moderate/strict NAT on one or both xboxes. I tried going back to default settings, and got open NAT for both xboxes and very low bandwidth speeds for both, which caused a lot of online playing issues.I never had an issue with the bandwidth speed before until I reset to factory defaults.What is the best way to connect 2 xboxes at the same time without NAT and bandwidth issues?
I have my router set up and life was good. i now want to forward a port. i go into apllications/gaming put the application name, the port i want to forward and click enable. Save changes and i get a changes save message. When the browser goes back to the applications/gaming screen no port shows as being forwarded. If i go to canyouseemenow.org the port shows as being closed.
Region : Italy Model : TD-W8961ND Hardware Version : V3 Firmware Version : 3.0.0 Build 120720 Rel.09287 ISP : alice
A couple of weeks ago I have bought a TD-W8961ND in replacement of my old modem/router (of another brand, to upgrade from Wireless G to N). I tried to replicate in the new router something similar to my old setup, so I programmed Virtual Servers (under the NAT menu) with the following rules: NATRules.jpg in an attempt to:
- grant access from "outside" Internet to my web server
- have a Wakeup-On-LAN from "outside" Internet ..etc.. without success. Please note that:
- I have successfully setup a DDNS server to reach my modem router from outside
- as for WOL, I defined my subnet mask as 255.255.255.128
- I have not set any other rule, nor in NAT, nor in routing or other
- I tried also with firewall disabled
- I do my testing by means of a smartphone with wireless disabled and Internet connection via mobile service provider
- Both the above mentioned functions were working with my old modem/router (and still work on LAN), and I have not changed other things (PC setup etc)
I'm struggling to set up an SSH router and it always looks like the port is closed...
Here's my set-up
www>D-Link router (ADSL connection)>Linksys router (+Tomato)>Target PC
I have set up the Linksys router to be an SSH server running Tomato as described in many other forums. The "Tomato router" sits behind my ISP-provided D-link-2680 router.
The internal IP of the Tomato router is 192.168.1.200 and if I try: Code:
I have a 9-year old PPPoE DSL modem at home whose ethernet port is only 10mbps. For some reason I am unable to establish PPPoE connection on my E1000 when connected to this modem (PPPoE login is correct, as it works with a different router when connected to the same modem). Someone suggested that the problem may be that the DSL modem is unable to negotiate Ethernet connection because E1000's WAN port is 10/100mbps (autosensing failing?). The suggestion was to manually set the router's WAN port to 10mbps. Is there such a switch somewhere on the E1000 - I cannot find it in web admin console anywhere?
Any other guesses as to why the router and the modem cannot connect?
FWIW, the dsl modem is a SpeedStream 5360 E1000 hardware v 2.1; firmware 2.1.02
I want to know how could I configure a Router Cisco DDR2201v1 for watching my CCTV System from anywhere with a internet connection. I already try to open a port in the NAT virtual server configuration but it didn't work.
How to open port 443 on my wireless router model WRT54G3G-AT? For a secure business connection. Plese don't give me a link to follow, I've tried that one.
I am finding it impossible to set up port forwarding. No matter what I do I remain completely stealthed when I do a port probe via [URL]... The only way I seem to be able to open a port is if I enable remote management. When I do that, whatever port I specifiy as the remote management port is then fully open. Obviously, I can't leave a port exposed like this and, anyway, I need to open multiple ports for my purposes.
I use modem and router to connect to the internet.When I connect my PC directly to modem port forwarding is working.When I connect my PC through my router the port is closed. I followed instruction for port forwarding.
