I would like to do the same as D-link 604 router. Since that method works.



Right now I can't even use my pcanywhere 10 with the Linksys router. Could someone please help me how to make it work.



Why are the 2 routers differ so much when configuring?


Thanks.

Is the Linksys blocking Ident (port 113)? I've seen a few do this and cause much weirdness. E.

How do I find out whether it blocking port 113?

Does that port affect PCAnywhere?

has a more extensive port scan test. You can even manually test *all* of your ports if you want but you can only test so many ports per scan. Go to the Shields Up page.

To test your computer for Open, Closed, Blocked (Stealth) ports I use the Security Test site offered by Sygate Personal Firewall.

It is at:

not put www in front of scan.sygate.com

I've used this sit for years, and believe they are safe.

They will test anyone's computer and firewall for free, it does not have to be a Sygate. It's very easy to use.

Warning: Just one thing, there is a COPYCAT SITE at:

I don't now who they are, I DON'T BELIEVE THEY ARE SYGATE. I put this warning in capitals because you should NOT let anyone scan your computer unless you know who they are.
