Go to this website http://support.dlink.com/techtool/di604/emulator/index.html as it is an online emulator for your model. There you can practice with it, without fear of messing anything up ... How cool... Again, wish my router had something like that, back when I was NOT in the know haha... |
Thank you guys so much for the information :D Haven't checked into it yet, but I'm don't exactly like the idea of enabling DMZ. I'm on a LAN with my computer, my sisters and mothers and my fathers, which have bank accounts and such so enabling all ports... errr.. not good :? If I just enable it to this computer I can just run an image of the harddrive and if something should happen (you never know with hackers and such), I can just remake it (my computer is filled with a bunch of crap anyways). Just have to make sure that the others computers on a LAN network is unreachable in that scenario.
The alternative - forwarding ports - sounds a bit more like the thing I should use, but I'm still a bit confused about what I am to do (I consider myself to know a little about computers, but this thing about routers is like a person came up to me and tried to start a conversation with me in chinese). Speak to me like I'm an idiot, I won't take offense :wink: Also giving me a hint on what ports to actually forward to be able to make that god damn server to work would be neat :P And yeah, sorry about confusing you, really meant the D-Link DI-604 router (am running on 1024kbs) |
that's kind of a sticky situation, unfortunately, you're never really completely protected. port 113 (identification port) is *always* open. the only thing your firewall does is make all the other ports "invisible". Not that i'm saying, open all your ports, cause you're gonna get hacked anyway. But i'm just saying, there are no hack proof firewalls.
As far as opening certain ports, you're going to want to open 7995-7999, 5997, 5999 and 9000. Really, you have to look at the program to see what port it's listening on, and open that port. My server listens on 9000, and it connects at 5999. only other problem i could see with that is, there are a lot of ports to open, and you're pretty limited to how many ports you can open up on the 604 router. If you want to open the individual ports, here's what you do: Go to your browser. type in "192.168.0.1" and press enter. Enter "Admin" for the user and nothing for the pass, unless you changed it. Go to the "Advanced tab". And you should see a bunch of fields to fill out in front of you. Enter in a unique name for your port, like "eq server port 1" or something. enter in the ip address that your computer has, (remember how i told you to get your ip address). Protocol type needs to be "TCP". if it's not that, change it to that. The private port, and public port should be the same thing. That's where you want to enter what port to have open. like 9000. After you enter the port - click the "Always" radio button, and then click the apply button. Annoyingly enough, you have to do that for *every* port you want to open. You can't just tell the router to open port 7995 to 7999... kinda sux. |
