Hi ! I would really appreciate it if someone could please help me out with my biggest headache of Port Forwarding :huh:.
I have a BSNL connection [Modem - UT 300R2U] connected to a Wireless Router (Linksys WRT54G running DD-WRT firmware).Currently the ports are not forwarded and Torrent speeds suck.I have gone through various threads which describe how ports can be forwarded - most suggest setting the Modem to Bridge Mode and configure the WRT54G for forwarding.However the problem is that the internet connection is shared wirelessly by 3-4 people and I'll have to individually configure the PCs for dialup (plus the other folks are not very comfortable with something which they are normally used to i.e. Dialup v/s "Always On" connection).
So my basic question is this : Can somebody pls help me out with enabling Port Forwarding such that :
a) I can have an "Always On" connection i.e. I simply start the PC,Router & Modem and my PC is connected to the Net without any other action
b)I dont have to use DMZ (or atleast use it in a manner which is 100% safe ?)
Additionally, my UT300R2U is such that there is no "Virtual Server" option (something that most PF manuals assume - Modem_Scrshot / Router_Scrshot)
I hope some kind soul can help me out with this.Would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance :inodding: !
