Can't seem to forward port

Post by mondo-t »

I've tried everything I can think of and find. I've downloaded and purchased PFConfig, setup static IP, and I've even put in the port manually in my router settings, but the port comes up closed or not reachable.

I'm using a Motorola SURFboard SBG6580. Let me know what else I need to provide and I will provide it gladly.

Then it's probably something else that is the problem.

Have any clue(s) as to what it may be?

Not unless you tell us a lot more about your set up.

Just the usual stuff that everyone seem to expect we can guess at, :)

client version
operating system
listen port
connection type (DSL, Cable etc.)
ISP
wireless or wired
firewalls
anti-virus

So I'm an idiot. I initially didn't select the right firmware of my router for PFConfig. I went in and changed it and now I'm getting the green light. Thanks for being patient and dealing with just another mindless idiot.
