Hey - I want to have port 1500 open on my desktop machine.
I used to have a linksys wrt54g wireless router, which was connected to my desktop machine via rj45 cable. In the router, I had forwarded port 1500 to the ip 192.168.1.100, which is the ip of my desktop (or so says ipconfig). This worked fine.
Then I got adsl, and had to add a second router - Zyxel Prestige 650-R. Now the port 1500 is closed, and I don't know how to open it. In the zyxel router, I have forwarded all ports to 192.168.1.1, which is the ip of the linksys router, to which my desktop is still connected - but it just doesn't work, even though I would think it to work.
Any ideas/suggestions?
(before anyone suggests it: I cannot remove any of the two routers, they both have to stay ;()
