Q. I currently own a Linksys E3000 router. I've went to a port forward page and I've selected a port that I want to forward. However, I could only assign the port forwards to ip's in this format: 192.168.1.X. but, I want to forward a port that has an ip of this format: 10.X.X.X. Is there still a way I could forward a port in that particular format?
A. No. All the computers have to have an IP address in the same subnet as the router private addresses. It then issues all machines with addresses in that range. you can not talk to a machine in the 10. range from the 192. range as these are totally different subnets. So any machine you want to run within that network MUST have a 192. series and within the same range except for the last octet of the address.
Do I have to port forward for both my Ethernet and Wi-FI connections?
Q. I want to port forward my router, a Linksys WRT54G3G-ST for Azureus. I am running Win Xp Pro.
A. With that router you should just have a tab for applications and gaming. Under that tab you can do your port forwards. The type of connection doesn't matter. It forwards to the IP address of your machine. How it travels to that IP address (wireless or wired) doesn't matter.
How can I keep the forwarded ports though my router going to the same computer?
Q. I have a home network. The router has port forwarding, which you set by setting which IP address the ports are forwarded to. But as the computers come and go and are restarted, the router keeps assigning them different addresses, leading to the ports forwarding to different machines all the time, which I'm constantly manually correcting. I've tried setting up the computers with manual IP settings, or using DHCP with a manual IP address, but neither one will work- they only work when configured to use DHCP, and then the addresses keep changing. An old router I had let you reserve an IP address and always assign it to the same MAC address, so the same machine always had a static local IP, but my Linksys Wireless router doesn't appear to offer that. Any idea?
A. Depending on what model Linksys router you have, you can flash it to use a third-party firmware that opens up more options including assigning a static IP to a MAC address (so your computer will always have the same IP).
I don't believe there's a way you can do this with the default Linksys firmware. Again what you want is assigning an IP to a MAC Address which is in the DHCP server settings.
