Q. Hi, can anyone please explain to me how to port forward with a dynamic ip address? I have a linksys router!
A. Which Dynamic IP ????
Your public ip? To get people to connect to a server at home? Then you use a dynamic naming service like DynDNS, DTDNS, or No-IP, and forward a URL name to your home's public IP. You then load one of their utilities that checks the Ip and updates their DNS servers on a regular basis...
If you home LAN IP is dynamic, you cannot port forward to it reliably. Forwarding is to a specific IP address on your home LAN (like 192.168.1.x). You have to make sure the PC you are forwarding to is at a static LAN Ip address, else eventually port forwarding will fail. No way around that - it has to be a LAN static IP.
Public Ip can be dynamic as long as you have a service mentioned above, that keeps things in sync....

Will port forwarding ruin me wireless connection?
Q. I was wondering if port forwarding my linksys router would have any effect on my wireless connection.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.
A. Typically port forwarding is done when you want to point a specific protocol to a specific machine...for example having an FTP server sitting behind your router and using port forwarding so any FTP sessions are directly sent to that specific server.
You have to be more specific in what you're doing, but in general if your forwarding packets inbound from the internet to a specific device, and that information isn't meant for your wireless devices, go for it.
However, I'd be curious as to why you need to do port forwarding outside of a proxy server, mail server, or ftp server.

How do I set up a single port forward for my internal ip address?
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.
