|
|
Hey all,
I recently set up an abyss server on this PC. It worked fine, and other people could go there......ok heres the problem now. I set up a network to connect 2 PC's that I have to the internet. Now, I cannot access the site or anyone else. The only address that works is a local address (but what good is that!). I hope you can help, JM |

you need to set up port forwarding on the router so port 80 of the router points to your pc. Consult the router manual for help. |

I run one myself through a Linksys router. The best advice is just to read the manual provided by whoever made your router and then to play around with it. _________________ -=Gatewayy=-

You need to forward to your computers LAN ip not the WAN |

You said that the same computers have the same IP? DO you mean that they share the same WAN (external IP) because both are on the same LAN?
If so, you should use their LAN IPs to connect between them. A LAN IP looks always like 192.168.*.* or 10.*.*.* . _________________ Support Team

Yes, the router is giving them a WAN ip that is the same. The wan ip is not the same one that i got from my ISP. The 2 pc's have different local ip's.

On your LAN side your two machines will have different address so they can recognise each other, find what they are and forward the port to the servers LAN IP. :idea: |

|
|
I also am having the same problem. I have ADSL modem conected to a DLink Di-713P router, everything is set correctly. It worked for a while then stopped. That is the web site could be seen from the wan or lan. Then out of the clear blue it stopped working. I 2x & 3x checked all settings and they are the same. I got a Linksys router and that worked for a day. If I bypass the router (computer to the modem) it works without a problem. I'm now in the process of trying to set it up as a server/ics (modem - computer with 2 nics - router -remaining computers).
If anyone has thoughts or comments on this please advise. As I would like to have all equipment behied the router.
Thanks,

Whatever PC you're using as the server needs to be setup with a STATIC address, not dynamic. Follow your routers manual on how to setup a static address. I had the same problem, and I think that was the technique that finally worked.
You'll want to reboot both your router and PC once that's complete. |

Give each machine a lan IP manually. |

I'm having the same problem...
I have the 5660 speedstream dsl modem/router, but i have a linksys router behind that because we have four computers on our network...
5660 modem/router --> network router -- >pc1,pc2,pc3,pc4 pc4 is my server, and it has been set to a static lan ip...
type in the ip.. goes to router... i have also already tried setting the modem and router to port fortward to my server with just port 80 as both tcp and udp, being i really don't know the difference but guessed that it should've worked with one of them....
I really don't know what needs to be set and what not... do i set the modem to forward port 80 to that pc or do i set the modem to forward to the router then let the router forward to that machine? |

A great web site to view is this one:
http://dslwebserver.com/main/fr_index.html?/main/main.html
Its geared towards DSL but some stuff would apply to cable.
The way I would like to have mine is internet - modem - router - server, pc1, pc2, pc3, pc4.
However, currently it is internet - modem - server.
I cannot seam to find a good fix for this problem. I may have to go to a high end router. i have talked with the local computer shop and have done all the things they would do if they came out on a house call.
still looking for a solution, if any one could help would appericate it.
thanks,
bud

Okeyday.....first off, if you have a dynamic IP address, sign up at http://www.dyndns.org for a static IP that points to your router. Then, go to the "Virtual Server" area of your router (if it has one. If it dosn't, then I can't help you :D), and program all "Web" traffic to go to the PC with Abyss on it. Make sure it's in TCP mode and that you are using port 80. Good luck! |

your virtual router mode is what i think you are talking about ip forwarding... and yes I have tried that....
of course... I haven't tried messing with it at all in about a month so maybe I can start all over and see what happens |

I'm also trying to get my server working through a router. I've tried port forwarding on 6 or 7 different ports, and the only time it's even partially worked is on port 8080, where it tried to download the address. I've even tried putting it in DMZ mode temporarily, but it still didn't work. I know I'm using the right IP to access it.
My router is a LinkSys, but I'm not sure of the exact model. |

Try this: I have XP pro SP1, cable modem, and a linsys 4 port router, this works for me.
1. Go to linksys.com and get the newest firmware for the router
2. Open the routers properties in your browser
- Click on the status tab, write down all the info there, then close it.
3. Open up network connections from control panel
- Click local area connections -
- Double click Internet protocol (TCP/IP) to open properties.
- Select Use the following address: IP address 192.168.3
- Subnet Mask- use the number you wrote down from the router
- Default Gateway - use the number you wrote down from the router
Select Use the following DNS server addresses.
Use the routers numbers listed under DNS. I had 3 DNS numbers only the 2 lower ones worked.
Select OK, Reboot your pc.
Note: your internet connection may not work at all until after the next steps.
4. Open the router properties in your browser
- Click the Advanced Tab
- Click the Filters Tab
- Click the o DISABLE option next to SPI (port forwarding currently won't work if this is enabled)
- Click forwarding
- Click UPnP forwarding
- Add a new Application named Abyss, EXT.port 80, check TCP, INT.port 80,
IP address 192.168.1.3 and check enable
- save settings, close browser and reboot
Your web servers address should be the WAN IP address your router list on the status page. Any software firewall will have to be told to allow the connection.
Good luck. |
