Help with forwarding ports please by Ezra on 08-09-2004 at 08:47 PM

I want to forward some ports to use File Transfer Plus

I know the next release will be abled to send it different so I don't need to, but still... What if the other person also has these problems... And It would also be handy for other software or purposes with my router :D

BTW. I am using a Sitcom DC-202

TIA

Best place to start is your router's manual.

It should probally be written in the manual, but Sitecom has a bad habit of poor documentation :(. A quicker solution:

  • Go to http://www.sitecom.nl/ (they have a English .com site too, but i saw you are Dutch like me).
  • On their site, go to: "Support" > "Drivers en handleidingen".
  • On the support page select "Data communication" in Product groep and find the DC-202 in Product.
  • Press "Zoek" and scroll down a bit (almost until the end) and you will find a Port Forwarding document.
  • Download it, read it and use it to forward your ports.

I know the Port Forwarding Document should be there because i saw it in the list, however i didn't had a change to atually download it. Their site duddenly stopped working. It will hopefully work again when you try it, if not then try again in a few hours/days.

Too bad that document only gives information about what ports what programs use :s

EDIT: I downloaded some other documents and I think I did it now, Too bad there's nobody online to test it :S

EDIT2 : Just tested it it works, however... with one contact I stil can't send things, the file transfer window does'nt open with him :s, but he can send file to me...
