I downloaded Echolink and successfully used it while trying a simple connection, my cable modem hooked directly to my desktop's ethernet port. I connected to AA2AD-L.
Then I hooked my home network back up up to my new cable modem and have not been able to connect to any Echolink stations. I assume that this is because I have now introduced a Linksys BEFSR41 router in to the equation. Apparently just going straight to the cable modem requires no forwarding of ports but when using a router the ports need to be configured. I configured the Linksys router to forward the ports required for Echolink but still no luck (other services requiring port forwarding, like Telnet by other in to my own DX Cluster, are also not working). I read on an Echolink forum that one needs to set up a static IP address for the Echolink port forwarding to work. I am not sure what is meant by that. My cable ISP assigns IP addresses dynamically. I DID set up an IP addresss within the Linksys router for Echolink port forwarding to 192.168.1.10 using "BOTH" for the type of service. Anyone know what stupid mistake I am making? 73 de Andy K3UK K3UK DX Cluster via telnet://208.15.25.196/ Other K3UK-CARC Groups DIGITALRADIO Group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/digitalradio/ MixW Group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/themixwgroup/ Unsubscribe this group via [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo!
