LegendaryLvl1 Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Ok, basically i have a routering problem. If u cant help then... dont waste your time here. So, I have a main computer that is connected to a NETCOMM NB5 which is ALSO connected to the NETGEAR WPN824v2 router.A cable extends from the NETGEAR router, to my second computer.The computer i am trying to get help with (my Eee PC) is wirelessly connected to the NETGEAR router.Now, Utorrent is actually working.By this i mean i can upload and download torrents.However, when i test my ports:"Error! Port 13156 does not appear to be open."comes up.And of course this is reducing my optimal performance.The questions come here:------------------------------------------------I cannot seem to acquire a static address as for some reason my IP address (for all 3 computers) are 10.0.0.# and i absolutely CANNOT get the DNS server addresses. (I have tried calling my provider and even they cant help)So, how do i obtain a static address and fix this problem?(remember i am on a wireless connection) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Make your router the static DNS server address....Or use the DNS servers that your ROUTER sees as the DNS server address/s.Or both. However MOST wireless ISPs only give you a LAN ip anyway. Forward your router all you want with most wireless "ISP"s, you're permanently firewalled.

LegendaryLvl1 Posted October 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 So your saying theres no possible way to get past this with a wireless connection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Ask your ISP (check their website first!) if they give an unfirewalled, unique internet ip to you. It can be dynamic...next time you may get a different ip address. If not, you're firewalled.You can pay a considerable bit for a 2-way proxy service so it can forward everything to you.

Tensk Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 But... that static ip, as it's a 10.x.x.x kind of ip, you mean private range, so, I think your problem has to do with your router being a dhcp server and/or your netcomm too (strange), and your pc having the "obtain an ip address automatically" option set, as well as the "obtain a dns server address automatically" set too.As long as you can surf the web, and you know how to see your ip/mask/gateway, you just should configure your tcp/ip settings staticly in your pc's, and setting a couple of dns server addresses too, which should preferably be your ISP ones, though teorically any of an ISP from your region/country should work fine.Is it that?

LegendaryLvl1 Posted October 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2008 When you say: "you just should configure your tcp/ip settings staticly in your pc's"Do u mean from my main computer? Or the one im using now (Wireless Eee PC)Also, i cant get a DNS address. I've tried everything possible from calling my ISP to checking myself.

Switeck Posted October 4, 2008 Report Share Posted October 4, 2008 Sorry, that's really all I can offer.Your problem is beyond me.Were I there, maybe I could do something....But since I'm not, I'm flying blind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
