I am trying to set this up and i can't get any connections but local ones to come through. i have the port set 999 and i have port forwarding to that port and to my IP, but still doesn't go. i know it can be done because a friend of mine from a long time ago did it and it worked fine. if anyone knows how to make linksys work with telnet plz post here thank you very much

One thing I remember from the other posts of this nature is that you need to manually specify the IP on the machine, don't use DHCP.

I have a network everywhere router made by linksys and i have a static....I have it obtain ip automatically and then have port forwarding set to the server machince's internal ip addy, ex 192.168.1.102

i got it. stupid me was using 192.168.1.101 as the login IP lol

got to say i have done that one before.....so your not the only one
