Hello Jim, As a former Winter Haven resident myself, how could I not help? <BG> I had this problem last week. I finally realized that the problem was with the modem- not the router. If you're running a DSL modem and particularly a Westell modem, you may want to access the modem (On the newer Westell modems, punch in 192.168.1.254 to access the modem or a URL of http://localmodem and you should be able to get into the unit. On the Westell, there is an "expert mode" that you have to go into and set up the NAT configuration and open all of the required ports for whatever services you're working in. In my case, I needed both VNC AND Terminal Services, so I had to open the 5900-5903 ports for the VNC and the 3882 (I think) for the Terminal Services. Mind you, all of this was on the MODEM. Also had to open those ports on the router as well and do the IP forwarding stuff as usual. I literally beat my head against the wall trying to figure this one out. In retrospect, it makes sense for the modem to do this, but given that Westell had NO documentation explaining that they do this with their modems, it made it a bit frustrating to figure out. You have to remember that DSL and Cable modems are set up to be one connection routers, so when you look at it like that, it makes sense. Anyway, best of luck in getting to the bottom of this problem and Merry Christmas to you.
