Hi all,
I've got a cable modem connection from Charter Internet in CT.
Particularly, I'm in the New Milford, CT area and I'm having a problem
trying to port forward port 22 (ssh) and port 1000 (a web server). I
have a Linksys WRT54GS router connected between the cable modem and my
home lan. As far as I can tell I've correctly configured the router to
port forward ports 22 and 1000, but I can't access these services from
outside my network, like from work. From my lan I can access these
services fine from my wife's WinXP box. I've also used the SheildsUP
web page at www.grc.com to scan the ports of my router, and it sees the
ports as available, but closed. I've also talked to Charter about this
and they've told me that they don't block any ports at their end. From
work I can ping the IP of the router no problem, but that's it.
Does anyone have any ideas about this, or what might be going on here?
Any assistance would be most helpful.
Thanks,
Doug
