Problems with port forwarding on linksys wrt54gs

MassiveD · 11-12-2007, 03:21 AM

Hi, great community here :)

Firstly i am quite limited with my networking knowledge, and i am running Windows XP SP2, With norton 360

My network setup is:

This PC ----------Linksys Wrt54gs--------Adsl Modem-------internet
Wireless Wired Wired

I have had this problem with port forwarding forever with my Linksys WRT54gs ver6.

I Set up a static IP (after trning DHCP off)and fill out the port forward range but the utorrent test does not show that they are enabled. I have turned off pnp mapping in uTorrent and my router config. (Screenshots below)

In an attempt to make it work, i installed dd-wrt custom firmware on my router, which gave me loads of extra options but i have no idea what they do, or whether they can help me.

The Port Forwarding screen on router config

My IP Settings

The Utorrent test

Any help would be greatly appreciated as i am very stuck

Cheers people :)
