Ultima Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Um. The Setup Guide does walk you through port forwarding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Then you set the static IP up improperly if your connection got screwed up. Are you sure you followed the static IP instructions properly? Can you give us the output from ipconfig /all, and how exactly you configured the static IP settings?And do tell us what modem, router, and firewall you're using...

egberta Posted November 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 REALTEK RTL8139/810x external modem, Comodo Firewall, and avast! free version virus program....i tried to access my gateway address like it says in the setup guide and it shows nothing....no router....

Ultima Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 ... Didn't I just ask for the output from ipconfig /all, and how you set the static IP configuration up? Anyway, if your default gateway IP address doesn't start with 10.x.x.x, 172.16.x.x, or 192.168.x.x, don't bother posting the ipconfig stuff and tell us that it was different...By the way, the REALTEK? It's NOT a modem. List the brand and model numbers of all the stuff between your computer and the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egberta Posted November 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 My ipconfig starts with 74, so i would say it was different than what u stated in your last post. My internal modem is: PCI Data Fax SoftModem with SmartCP....as far as the rest i don't know what to send you. I have tried the setting up my static ip according to the guides uTorrent has and no luck. I copied my gateway IP address to the internet browser (IE7....) and it came up with a blank screen.As far as setting up a static IP, I have not had to do that with Clearwire...now, when I had a 56k modem connection like megabyte online or something like that i did...that's the confusing part...I don't know anything about Clearwire.... Thanks for any help and support.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Wireless internet = you're almost definitely behind a permanent NAT. Meaning there's nothing you can do with regards to port forwarding, and your transfer speeds will likely suffer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
