MadScientist305 Posted April 21, 2007 Report Share Posted April 21, 2007 I've disabled my firewall, and I've followed the instructions at portforward.com(found a similar model to my router), I've set the computer to have a static ip, I've unchecked the randomize port on utorrent, and I still get a "port is not open" message when I test the port. I've provided a few screen captures to see if anyone can spot something that isn't right. Thanks for anyone deciding to help me!This is just the "System Information" displayed in the router:This is the NAT table:The Static IP settings on the computerDoes the actual port matter? I've heard some ISP's "block" ports because they know p2p uses them? I have comcast by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted April 21, 2007 Report Share Posted April 21, 2007 Can you find out what the DHCP range is on your router? What modem are you using? What about firewall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadScientist305 Posted April 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2007 It ranges from 192.168.11.2 to 192.11.264.I've disabled both the software and hardware firewall, and the modem I'm using is the Motorola SB5100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted April 21, 2007 Report Share Posted April 21, 2007 ...? The highest IP in the range could only be 192.168.11.255 -- how does your range go up to .264?SurfBoards have been known to interfere with port forwarding. Try connecting your computer directly to the SurfBoard -- is the port still blocked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadScientist305 Posted April 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 About the ip address range...this is where, I assume, the router shows me the range:and yes, when I connect my modem directly to the computer, the port is open.

Switeck Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 2 + 64 = 66, not 264.You've been doing too much new math. (...and depending on how it counts, the final address might be 65 since it STARTS counting at 2.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadScientist305 Posted April 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Heh, probably true, having fun doing vector fields in 3-space has rotted my algebra skillzzz.But, in fact, I thought the "up to 64 addresses" part meant that the address went from .201, .210, .220...up to .264. I totally forgot that the ".2" is actually .002.So, if its my surfboard modem blocking/interfering with my port, how do I stop it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 As far as I've seen, there hasn't been any way to get around a quirky SurfBoard... Your best bet would be to buy a different modem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
