How do FPS's open UDP ports without needing to configure the router to forward them?I never have to forward ports from my router to my PC. Every game i have somehow manages to open the UDP ports it needs without me having to configure my router. Yet when i check to see if those ports are open (prior to starting the programs) they always come back as blocked or closed. Now I'm currently working on a UDP Internet program and need to know how to do the same thing - open ports on a router without having to make the customer configure their routers. I'm THINKING that other programs start with a TCP/IP connection on the desired port and that opens the UDP port. Is this the answer or is there another method used?
No ports seem to open up when they are supposed to be open according to the routers GUI.When i use "port checker"-websites, they even say that port 80 is closed until i actively open it in the router, then it shows up as open. This however only applies to port 80, no other ports shows as open OR allow any traffic through.The same thing happens when the router is in DMZ.What I have done so far is google my butt off without any results, I have tried a new router, a new network card, formated, re-installed windows and made sure that my ISP is not blocking the ports that i have tried to open.My purpose of opening a port is to run a mumble server, which I have run on a Hamachi VPN so far, and that has worked fine.
I'm using a WRVS4400N and have all the proper ports open as well as the corresponding ones in the windows firewall. I've tested this with multiple port checkers online, such as grc.com. I've even go so far as to put one computer on a dmz and turn off the firewall on others. I've tested multiple ports on different computers. As well as from different remote gateways (other people's computers) just to see if it was a loopback problem.
I have the latest firmware installed and have done this from a clean install as well. This problem won't go away. My addy is nbcr [dot] dyndns.info if you'd like to have a test yourself and see that 118 is indeed closed.
I have an extensive computer repair background and run my own shop repairing computers, however networking is my weak area. Oh and its version 2.
I am trying to add a couple VOIP phone units that do not have their own router. They are designed to run of the existing router and have three ranges of UDP ports opened up. They also do not advise using internal (private) statics on the phones. So what they are asking for is three different ranges of UDP ports to be opened up to all behind the router?
I cannot figure out how to do this (or if it is possible) with a RV016.
Is there a way to use QuickVPN with the RV042 without leaving ports 80 and 443 wide open to Shields UP! scans? As a workaround, I am forwarding these ports to a non-existent IP and forcing QuickVPN to use port 60443. Yes, 60443 shows as open too if I scan it, but at least it's not in the first 1056 ports.
Router is Linksys-branded, using latest firmware for this hardware (1.3.13.02-tm)
A company with 20 branches in Rio de Janeiro area. The main servers are in a datacenter located in downtown.Each branch has a RV042 router with firmware version 1.3.12.19-tm (Feb 13 2009 13:03:21) installed.All users in this network have a proxy configuration pointing to proxy.[blah].com.br port 3128.the HTTP/HTTPS traffic should go through proxy only. [code] Some "smart" users were caught using Ultrasurf application, which changes the proxy settings to go through port 9666 or even 443.In other machines, we've found some black proxies [for example: 212.46.27.142 port 8080].
My objective:
- To close all ports in Firewall -> Access Rules section and grant permission only to some selected and specified ports.
- To redirect all HTTP/HTTPS connections to go to proxy's IP address only.
Which Access Rules can I set in these RV042s in order to block and prevent these users to continue abusing this network?The users who were caught using Ultrasurf were fired.
I cannot open router settings... I had recently opened some ports on my router. However today I tried to access the settings and all it does is a web search for the gateway (192.168.1.254). The internet is working. I reset the router and it did not work. I cannot do a hard reset because I will lose all my settings for my company's settings. Also the router is a Netopia modem/router
I have just upgraded my AIM and Skype messengers and now it won't let me sign in. I did before with my old versions. It is saying that my internet connection is bad which it is not. I have looked up ports in my Yahoo messengers, Control Panel and Bit Torrent still nothing.
I cannot open the config page of beetel adsl2 router using 192.168.1.1I have connected my laptop to router via Lan cable. Now when I give the ipconfig, I get some random IP and does not get the default gateway: Autoconfiguration IPv4 Address. . : 169.254.129.188 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.0.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . :I cannot ping 192.168.1.1 nor 169.254.129.1 thus the web page of router cannot be opened.This all happened after I reset my router.
We have a single HP 2810 switch being used for an iSCSI SAN.We want to replace it with dual higher end switches.But we've got another SAN to also setup now - Dell Equallogic PS6010E - that has 10gb iSCSI SFP+ ports.Can the 4 x SFP+ uplink ports on the Dell PowerConnect PCT5548 or the HP 3800-48G-4SFP+ switch be used for just the 10gb iSCSI, while the other 48 handle the 1gb iSCSI?We were told the uplink ports don't have buffering, making them bad ports for iSCSI traffic and only useful as uplinks to another switch.We only need 8 x 10gb ports (4 for 2 servers, and 4 for the Equallogic SAN), so if the above would work, it would probably save us $10,000 from having to buy a separate 24 port dedicated 10gb switch to handle it.
how can I block multiple ports on only 1 IP Address while not blocking those ports on other IP Addresses. I am using a Netgear WNR2000v1 which assigns the IP Addresses to each device.
I currently have 1 cat 5 jack at my tv/entertainment area and will be needing additional jacks to add gaming consoles,streaming video player and internet ready tv at the same location.The current jack installed at that location is coming from a D-Link 8 port Gigabit switch installed in a different room.The switch is at capacity,all ports are full,so no additional availability there.My question is how to expand port availability at the entertainment area.Is it possible to put another switch or hub at that connection?Would there be a conflict with cascading a switch from one to another? I have a 25 meg fiber optic incoming service,so there is plenty of speed and bandwith available to handle these componets.
I'm using a Thomson Technicolor 587nV3. I need to change my NAT status from strict to open. So I can play MW3 online and connect to my friends online games and so I can host multiplayer matches. I have windows 7 laptop to do any of the steps required. I've tried to bind my routers cone through Winscript but without any luck perhaps I done it wrong
Adding ports to my Fairpoint provided Westell 7500 Rev D DLS modem router which has only 4 RJ45 ports. Bought a Linksys SE2500 gigabit smart switch but it doesn't assign IP or pass on router assigned IPs. Can't get ASSISTANCE from Fairpoint [successor to Verizon] configuring router or any advice on other ways to get more wired devices on LAN.For speed in backups I'd like 3 devices to be able to communicate at giabit speed Want to have an NAS and 2 Win7 Ultimate computers on smart switch, 3 other wired devices [WinXP, AT&T Cell tower, & DirectTV whole house SWM interface] and wireless on the router. 1. Are Fairpoint specs for DSL published so I could get another DSL modem router instead of the Westell or is it better to configure Westell as a router only and use a new to be acquired router with or without the existing or a new gigabit switch. I have a DI-624 from the pre-DSL Hughesnet satellite days.2. Are there less smart switches which would work better and let router assign the IPs?3. If this is too complex for me, can you recommend a remote access consultant to walk me through this for a fee?4. I'm 82, have been in computing since 1960, mainly in on-line end user environment mbut don't know the bridging, PPP PPoE differences, and implementation or configuration details of current hard and software except as a user.
Ok, so i never had problems with this before until i reformatted my computer. I have used a program called simple port forwarding and i've also manually added the port seeing if theres a difference, but every time i check my port which is 25565 for a minecraft server it says either failed or not open etc.. I checked netstat -an and it showed it was listening to my ip address and port 25565.
Ok, my roomate is hogging the bandwidth on our shared router downloading junk. I'm not sure if he's using a torrent, but just in case he is here is my question:How do I turn off the ports for torrenting on my qwest pk5000 modem? Is there anything else I can do that would work as well?My friend reccommended I turn off every port after 9000 or something.
How can I allow all ports to be open? I don't really want my 1811 to block any traffic. I tried the command access-list 1 permit any which allows me to surf the internet, but when I check my web server, and port 3389 (Remote desktop) on yougetsignal.com it says those ports are blocked.
I was told i need to open certain ports to certain IP's,what ports need to be opened to what IP's for the folowing game as im close to giving up.The games are as follows - Call of Duty 4, Counter Strike 1.6 and Source, Warcraft III, and StarCraft 2
The problem is I don't know what to do to open my modem's ports because every single of them except of 80 is blocked,im having some latency problems on online games etc, I asked my ISP and they didnt probably understand what the port is they offered me changing my IP to PUBLIC IP for onetime payment, seeing as they probably dont know what the port is im confused now, will the public ip unblock the other ports?
I can't open up any ports.I've tried using applications such as Simple Port Forwarding, PFPortChecker and manually by opening my router gateway (192.168.1.1).I can open a port, but if I check whether the port is open, it says that the port is closed. I tried opening ports through Windows Firewall and even disabling firewall, still won't work.
My reports say that my listen ports are blocked even though I removed my router already. I've enabled these ports in Windows firewall already. Why are they still blocked?
I have 3 xbox 360s in the house and im having nat trouble with them, i am currently using an actiontec pk5000, from centrylink. i need to know if there is a way to open all ports on this router or if i should get a router/switch that i can open the ports on and use dmz on the actiontec for the new router to make this work.
I am thinking about opening a port for a certain multi-player game. I was just hoping to know if opening a port for this game could leave me vulnerable to hacking or other stuff like that.
I have this problem i can't open my ports on my D-link 524, i have opened about 6 ports so that my XBOX 360 works with a open nat, i have also set the DMZ to my xbox's IP which is static btw, my PC is also static. This is how i basically tested and it told me that it was not opened. I went into:
192.168.0.1 -> Advanced -> Virtual Servers ->
Enabled
Name: XBL1
Private IP: 192.168.0.100 ( because i was testing it on the computer - if it were 360 it would be .141 )
Both UDP and TCP at port 3074
Schedule=Always
Apply -> Then restarts modem/router i waited for 2 minutes before turning them on again, i turned router on first because some guide told me to do that.
I did exactly what they did on portforwarding.com then i opened up portchecker and typed in 3074 and pressed check -> This port is NOT opened. What is wrong? This is how my net is set up.
I have a Cisco 877 connected to a VSAT modem, and I can't open ports outside, I dont know why?The Cisco 877 Fa0 port is connected to the VSAT modem at VLAN9, and the rerst of ports are connected to the local lan network at Vlan2. I can enter to Internet, but I can't open port outside. ADSL over pots is not used here.I need to open port 81 for ip address 192.168.1.130 and I dont know why this isn't working. Also if I do: sh ip nat translations I see this:
sh ip nat translations cisco877#sh ip nat translations Pro Inside global Inside local Outside local Outside global tcp 172.30.xx.122:81 192.168.1.130:81 --- --- udp 172.30.xx.122:81 192.168.1.130:81 --- ---
