What is the manufacturer of your router so I can get a user guide and taylor the instructions if needed?

Generally I would statically address the device to be forwarded to. If your router address is 192.168.1.1 and Subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 and it's DHCP server controls address 192.168.1.100 for 50 leases to 192.168.1.149 then consider using the range 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.99 uniquely as static IP addresses. There are more starting at 192.169.1.150 but let's ignore them for now. In the network adapter to recieve port forwarded content assign a static IP address based on the above as say 192.168.1.15 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 and a default gateway of 192.168.1.1. The DNS addresses should also be static however depending on your router there may be an option. Some routers allow their address to be entered as the DNS address and pass requests as appropriate to the DNS servers loaded in their lan configurations, otherwise you will enter your ISP supplied DNS addresses into the network configuration.

Now that we have established a stable IP address to forward the port to we need to tell the router everything it sees for port 5060 gets forwarded to IP Address 192.168.1.15 port 8000. If detailed instructions are needed I will need to know the manufacturer and model of your router.

Please provide the additional information and any questions in a response to this problem and I will respond when available.

Hello. I need to change my NAT type on my Xbox 360 from moderate to open using a Westell Versalink 7500 router.

Hello

Your router does not have moderate or open nat options.

Options that it does have are Public Lan - nat type and Private Lan -nat type.

Your router also has a DMZ feature and port forwarding options.
User manual for your router is available at http://www22.verizon.com/ResidentialHelp/HighSpeed/Networking/User+Guides/User+Guides.htm

To get your xbox live working properly, you can try using the public nat type, if that does not solve the problem, turn on DMZ for the address of the Xbox360. Now if that still does not solve the problem, then you would need to set up port forwarding for all the ports that xbox live uses.

I would personally recommend that you enable port forwarding for the required ports.
Ports that need to be open are
TCP 80 • UDP 88 • UDP 3074 • TCP 3074 • UDP 53 • TCP 53

Together with the user manual and xbox360 portforwarding guides that are available here http://portforward.com/english/applications/port_forwarding/Xbox_Live_360/Xbox_Live_360index.htm

You will be able to get it working.

But since that is a lot of information for anyone that has not used port forwarding before I'll write down step by step how to get started.

First get on your computer, You need to connect to the routers own configuration page. By default this is http://192.168.1.1

So, open your internet browser and write HTTP://192.168.1.1 and press enter.

Now you get a a user and password prompt. the username is admin and the password is password. all lower case.

Now on the top menu, click on Firewall settings.

Now select Port forwarding. more information and pictures on the user manual page 98 and forward. You need to create a new rule or rules that forward the above ports - allow them to be open to the internet for the xbox 360.

Looking at page 112. You would create a new port forwarding service, you need to add all the ports one by one. And the host device would be the IP address of the xbox.

Now the DMZ option will be simpler, that is on page 118. You just need to find the xbox ip address from its network options and put it there, and turn on the DMZ. That will allow all traffic for that machine.

Let me know how far you get. I'll help if you get stuck, sorry if this post is a bit unclear, this is a very small box to write in, I can't easily see everything I've already written here.

How do i clear my port for forward settings? Recently I set up port forwarding for my xbox. However, thru researching im reading that enabling dhcp and dmz is all i need for a the bext xbox live experience

Access the router's built-in web-interface, and access the router's web-page where you "enabled" the port-forwarding. Then, "remove" or "delete" the settings.
Then, access the router's web-page that defines which of your computers/XBOX is to be placed into the 'DMZ' ("De-Militarized-Zone"). Put your XBOX, not your desktop, into the 'DMZ', to allow it "full" access to the Internet, i.e., bypassing the protection of the "firewall" that is inside your router.

How to port forward using Dlink DI-524 for Emule?

DMZ is a feature that is included on some routers but is not in Internet sharing software. A DMZ allows a single computer on your LAN to expose ALL of its ports to the Internet. When doing this, the exposed computer is no longer ?behind? the firewall. Port Forwarding vs DMZ A DMZ is far easier to set up than port forwarding but exposes your entire computer to the Internet. Sometimes TCP/IP applications require very specialized IP configurations that are difficult to set up or are not supported by your router. In this case, placing your computer in the DMZ is the only way to get the application working. Placing a computer in the DMZ should be considered ?temporary? because your firewall is no longer able to provide any security to it.

How To Make a DMZ

A router normally stops incoming Internet traffic from getting on your network, unless the traffic is in response to one of your computers or when using port forwarding. But instead of discarding the incoming traffic or using port forwarding, you can send incoming traffic to one computer on your network by establishing a "Default DMZ Server". (DMZ = humorous reference to "Demilitarized Zone".) This avoids you having to figure out what ports an Internet application wants ? by throwing all ports open for that computer. For regular network operation, NETGEAR recommends you do not use a DMZ. A computer with DMZ loses firewall protection, and is exposed to exploits from the Internet. If compromised, your own computer can attack the rest your network. Instead of DMZ, use port forwarding, as described in How is Port Forwarding Configured? However, the DMZ server feature is helpful: * When you have a problem connecting to an Internet service. Setting up a DMZ will determine whether a closed port is responsible for the problem. * With some online games and videoconferencing applications that are incompatible with NAT. Follow the procedure under your router model to create a DMZ To Create a DMZ for RP614, MR814, FVS318, FVM318, WGR614 1.
