Hi, I have a DI-704P which most likely runs on the same firmware. I had experienced the same problem as you before, so I decided to look into it more closely. Make sure your router is rebooted, btw.
When I tried this I got the following results in my log file. <-Snip-> 06/03/03 17:16:51 Got connection from client 66.123.20.58 06/03/03 17:16:51 rfbProcessClientProtocolVersion: client gone 06/03/03 17:16:51 Client 66.123.20.58 gone 06/03/03 17:16:51 Statistics: 06/03/03 17:16:51 framebuffer updates 0, rectangles 0, bytes 0 <-Snip-> 66.123.20.58 is www.gotomyvnc.com. It shows that their method of connecting works, but vncviewer isn't set up correctly, or something else is interfering. Oddly, my McAfee firewall blocked each attempt but they showed up on sequential ports that seemed unrelated to vnc.

I'm trying to make connections to virtual server on 192.168.0.128 which works fine on the LAN. This may be a stab in the dark but VNC may NAT (Network Address Translation). D-Link tech support says this when asked about Nortel VPN: "Note: Nortel Contivity VPN may not work with our routers. Try following the steps above and disable the Keep Alive feature on your Nortel Contivity client software. Please contact your IT department with information regarding your VPN if it can be used with NAT (Network Address Translation)." I hope all of this information can be useful to somebody. All I know is that a few of us D-Link users can't use vnc outside of our home networks.

I have AT&T Broadband at home, and they have assured me that they are not blocking any ports, and claim I can use VNC but won't support me. At home I have a NAT address range with a Dlink DI-701 router. I have enabled a range of ports to be forwarded to my home machine.(5800-5999) Now in the Dlink setup it calls it a virtual server, although I can set a range of ports, so I believe it is the same as port forwarding. On my home LAN VNC works fine. When I go to www.gotomyvnc.com, it shows the following: Checking you out at IP address "24.131.xxx.xxx"... 24.131.xxx.xxx is accepting connections on Display 0 (TCP port 5900). I logon to my dial account and try to connect to: 24.131.xxx.xxx:0 24.131.xxx.xxx:5900 And I get the failed to connect to server. I have the VNC Listener and server both launched. What gives?
