this router connects me wirelessly to my isp. there is not another one that i can use here. is there a software that i can use to configure port forwarding, can i put another router between this one and my computer to get the port forwarding option? is there an easier solution? i have been searching long and hard on the internet but to no avail. any help is greatly appreciated. ps all computers on this network are running vista home

Take a look at page 32 of the manual: http://www.tre.se/upload/3MobiltBredband/Huawei E960 - Manual.pdf

It appears they do indeed support port forwarding.

i have gone throught the manual indicated. this is definitely the correct model. i think that maybe the provider is using a slightly deviated version of this software. there is not a link as indicated to get into the virtual server window. the company i am using is Zain. i have also tried to do a software update for the router as mine is dated Nov 07 but it asks me to find the image or gateway to be modified and i have no clue what i am looking for. i clicked the browse icon and it opens a window that i am supposed to use to look for a file. i have also looked at the huawei and zain websites to no avail. any further insight would be greatly appreciated. also, this probably belongs on another thread but as long as i am here any ideas on why it says i am connected at
SIM Card Status SIM Ready
Network Type HSDPA
Bandwidth 7.2 Mbps
Service Status Circuit & Packet Switched Capable

and it is soooo slow? i have 4-5 bars (of 5) of signal at all times. i guess one headache at a time. thanks again

If the menus are different, they probably have custom software. Not sure what to suggest in that case. :smile:

ok so i was working on two other 960's today. they do indeed offer port forwarding however i am using outdated software / firmware. i click on the update button and am supposed to be browsing for an image. any idea where i can download the update? tech support was of little to no help.

I didn't have much luck finding an update for that router either.
