On my router, i have many things that can be used to forward ports : "Virtual Server" "applications" "filters" "Firewall" "DMZ"
from what i read and understood, virtual server is to forward 1 port, while firewall is to forward a range of ports. but i have tried both of them, restarting router, and nothing seems to work. can anyone tell me what i missed ?
