Port forwarding of DSl502T for azureus PortForward.com - Free Help Setting up Your Router or Firewall select from routers list then the program/s
Hmm...this is how you do it:
1. lets call D-Link dsl-502t - A
2. lets call airport express - B
3. lets call mac mini - C
The setup is something like this:
----> MTNL line ----> A -------> B ------> C
Now i'm assuming C has wifi connectivity. You have to accomplish this task in 3 stages:
Stage 1: Connect C to B
This is pretty simple. Configure B's wifi parameters which are generally the SSID of your network, encryption ( WEP / WPA / WPA2 ), LAN IP range ( set this to: 192.168.0.X ) etc...
Once these parameters are configured in B, setup C to connect to B. This should be pretty simple considering that you're using a mac mini.
Stage 2: Connect B to A
This is a little tricky. Firstly, I'm assuming you've got A working with the LAN cable. So all you gotta do is plugin A's LAN cable's other end into the Internet port of B. Once done, you'll be able to browse the internet on C.
Stage 3: Port forwarding
Next comes port forwarding. You'll have to setup port forwarding at two places - A as well as B.
On A: Before you setup A, you'll have to check out what IP address A has assigned to the internet port of B. It'll probably be 192.168.1.2 or 192.168.1.3. You can find that out from the status page of B. Once you have the correct IP, open up A's setup page. There search for an option of DMZ ( DeMilitarized Zone ) or virtual server. In that put the IP that you got. Save, reboot the router.
On B: Now, on B you'll have to refer the manual to setup portforwarding / DMZ. On the same lines you'll have to check out what IP does B assign to C and accordingly port forward / DMZ the IP.
Hope this helps! 🙂

Before I change anything, here are the existing configs of my system.

Hogwarts is the name of wifi access point airport express.

to enable wifi, first you have to have wifi on your powerbook.
The cheapest wifi acess point that Apple has on the market is airport express which I am also using. It costs 5600 rupees.
You can buy non-apple wifi access point which you will be able to get for as little as rs. 2000.
here are screenshots of D-Link setup page. I am posting these as I am clueless as to how to setup port forwarding. I am hoping that maybe you can help. 🙂
I can post more screenshots. just tell me which info yu want and I will post the screenshot of that particular page of dlink setup page.
