Problem with port forwarding

[Grimnir]

I have clearwire Wimax internet. It runs through a motorola CPEi 25150 wireless modem on to a linksys WRT160N router and then to my computer. I have set up a static IP for my wireless at 192.168.1.2 but whenever I check to see if I forwarded the port I'm using I keep getting the IP address of 71.20.202.17. I know that this is my external IP address. I have gone into my modem and port forwarded every IP address I can think of (192.168.1.1,192.168.1.2, 192.168.15.2, 71.20.202.17) and it hasn't accomplished anything. I also have the port forwarded for 192.168.1.2 on my router.

Here is my info when connected directly to my modem:

roller

Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-14-22-F0-64-2B

Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : Yes

Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes

IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.15.3

Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.15.1

DHCP Server . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.15.1

DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.15.1

The info is much the same when going through my router. The only difference being that my default gateway/DHCP server/DNS server is 192.168.1.1 and my IP address is 192.168.1.2.

I'm at my wits end here. I have tried everything I can find on port forwarding and nothing has worked. At the moment I have the red circle and the best I can hope for is the yellow triangle. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You generally can't forward ports if you have a wireless connection, the reason being that such ISPs often don't give you a real WAN IP. Your ipconfig output while connected directly to the modem only serves to prove that point: any IP within 192.168.x.x is a RFC1918-designated LAN IP. There isn't anything you can do about port forwarding.

Well that's stupid. Thanks for clearing that up for me, guess I'll just have to plug in from time to time.
