To make this just a little more clear: If my web server is on my local network at home and my router is forwarding port 80 to it, I want to be able to go to http://andrew.jorgensenfamily.us/ from home or from work and get the same thing (without any fun DNS magic). With my old netgear router that worked great. With OpenWRT I get the router's config page, which I'd still like to be able to get to if I go to http://192.168.0.1/
If that's still not clear just make fun of me :-) Thanks in advance, Andrew Jorgensen On 1/22/07, Andrew Jorgensen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Ever since I upgraded to a Linksys router running OpenWRT I've been wondering how I can get it to do something I really liked about my old Netgear router: Make the WAN address always respond the same way from the inside (LAN) as it does from the outside (Internet). For instance, if i hit port 80 on the router's outside address I want it to forward me to the web server behind the router whether I'm away from home or not. As it is now trying to connect to the WAN address always gets me the same thing as if I had tried to connect to the router's LAN address, even though the IP's are different. To put that in terms of firewall rules I want the packets destined for the WAN address to be processed by the rules for the WAN interface regardless of which interface they came in on... I think. If that didn't make sense please ask a clarifying question. I tried, really I did. Is there some way to make this happen?
