Blocking a telephone number

The Linksys router, like any other router, will block "unsolicited" traffic from the Internet coming "into" the router (for "forwarding" to your computer that is "behind" the router).

So, you need to access the web-server "inside" the router, from a computer that is "behind" the router, and you need to modify the "blocking" of the router's "firewall", to "allow" (instead of "block") traffic from the Internet to a specific port-number.

You'll also need to "forward" that port-number to a specific computer "behind" the router.
Compare to a secretary that receives telephone-calls for several managers in the office.
When somebody calls the office, the secretary may look at the caller-ID, and may choose
to *NOT* pickup the telephone, i.e., to "block" the incoming call. Thus, none of the telephones
on the desks of the managers will ring -- they will not receive any notification that the secretary
has "blocked" the call. Or, the secretary may recognize the caller-ID as being that of the spouse of one of the managers, and may just "forward" that incoming call to the correct manager.
The secretary needs to know which of the telephones is associated with the spouse of the caller, so that the "correct" person responds to the incoming call.
The secretary is doing the 'NAT' ("Network Address Translation") to correctly do the "forwarding".

Similarly, the router needs to be configured to do the 'NAT' correctly.

Be sure that you haven't entered the number in the phone twice.

If you have anymore questions please feel free to ask, Rich.

AT&T has a block they can put on texting, but they also have a block they can put on Multi Media messages. If text comes through, but not picture messages, chances are the phone number has that multimedia block on. Call them and ask them to check and see if your line has "multimedia restrictions" then they will look for that, and they can probably take that block off for you. They don't always check that one, sometimes you have to know more than they do..

i think the number has been blocked by some one or its a long distant call try not recieving it.

go to message settings and in tat u would hav selected as the option "receive msg from tis " option better change it receive msg from all 

then u wil get

if you want to block your own number dial *67 before you dial... to block someone else try dialing

To activate Call Block or add a telephone number to the rejection list, dial *60. If you dont know the number to be blocked, dial *60 immediately after hanging up from the call. To turn off Call Block, dial *80. Call Block cannot block calls from some cellular phones, pay phones or business lines. It also cannot block most long distance numbers.

hope this helps...please rate...thanks

If you have a private number or unlisted number, you must dial *67 before dialing the number. This is only needed if the number you are calling rejects blocked/private numbers.

I would just like to know how I can block a particular number through my 6060. Please don't tell me divert the calls; that's not the solution. T

here are just a few numbers from a couple of people that I don't ever want to receive any messages or calls from. My other friend's seem to able to block numbers on their more recent Nokia phones. Don't tell me the 6060 is too old fashioned to be able to do that?

This facility is available for specific number only on phone with operating system. Not this one.

Did u try calling you're cellphone company to know if they blocked the text messages ? If you're text messages are not block, can you tell me more on what happens, what error/messages you get or simply what you do
