Two routers and Openig Ports.

Dec 15, 2004 0 Replies

Hi all, Im using a zoom x3 modem/router, and a Linksys WRT54 router, in series to get wireless access. My wired PC's are connected via the linksys, and it is providing them with local IP's. The Zoom takes the PPP values. There is an option on both devices for opening ports, but I cannot find a configuration which works. Also is there a way to check that a port is actually opened, as at present i'm relying on trying to hook up to someone's server.



The Zoom support told me to change the settings to 1483 Bridged IP LLc from PPPoE LLC, and then to add my username and password to the linksys device. Have tried this but I cannot get iternet access with this configuration.



Any advice welcome
