Check my port and your webpage says it is fine. I have the IP forced to that port.

Yet...I can't connect anymore!

I've got a cable modem going to a linksys cable/dsl router, which then acts as a ethernet hub for my house. At my Mac, I have an ethernet hub which connects my iMac, printer, and Airport to my central hub...

No joy here...and VERY frustrated!

Ideas?

Humm and I believe you didn't configured the router as I told you I thought my PM was enough clear. Look at portforward.com to find your router and then they explain how to open the ports you want.

Bonne chance

Now that's a weird sentence. You have a modem connected to a router, then the router is connected to airport!!!

I'll check portforward.com

BUt my response was and is clear.

I have a CABLE modem connected to my router. THat router distributes IP addresses via DHCP to my house.

At one particular room in my house (my office), that signal goes to a different ethernet hub. My computer, my laser printer, and my airport connect to that hub.

The appropriate port IS open...no firewall issue...

Yet I can't connect...

HELP!

So you are behind router then a hub. This makes your real address converted from xxx.x.xx.xxx to 192.168.1.x then to a hub to your computer. I don't know how to go trough 2 obstacles with LW. If the hub was another router, it could be okay.

Your response wasn't clear enough. And you didn't chech portforward.com which was the first thing I told you to do I'm sorry I never got into your situation and I think nobody here either, so my help will stop there

Bonne chance

Appreciate the try...I DID go to portforward.com and had myself set up properly...

And you are right...my computer is at 192.168.1.x since I use a linksys router.

The ethernet hub doesn't re-route IP addresses, so it should not be an "obstacle" as you describe...having another router in the stream would be incredibly destructive to IP addressing...not a good choice...

I can't believe that NOBODY out there has a similar setup...

I also can't believe that there isn't a solution!

I'll keep working on it and let you know if I can get it working...

Ok guys...
I've been spending like 3 hours, reading those threads about firewall and router...cause i have both of them (D-Link 604 router and Xp built-in firewall).
I've come to this thread, and it is the best for my problem..yet not solve it.
This are what i've done so far:
1. set up a static IP address on a my computer (Windows XP)
2. Set up a Static IP Address with the router
3. Port Forwarding for the router (port 6346).
4. Open port 6346 in Xp firewall.
5.Check LW's Option>Firewall and port (Force Ip checked)
6. Check errors report and got "received incoming this session: true"

But the upload speed is always < 3KB although i set upload speed to unlimited and using a broadband connection...
Well a lot of ppl queued up to download my hits but they all leaved disappointed

So what should i do now? Could u make it like step by step so i can follow easily (I'm better at games than those technical stuffs).
Thank you very much!
