Port forwarding on Marconi Premium combo

[gambithunt]

Hi all

I'm trying to improve my nat status for my PS3,

When I try and add ports in the port forwarding section it always set the ports I specify to 0. I was following this tutorial on the portforwarding website but I'm getting nowhere because it does not keep the port I specify.

After I click add reserve mapping I see the posrt as 0, very frustrating and please if anyone know how to resolve this it would be much appriciated.

ive tried configuring those things before for port forwarding, some i got lucky, others simply would not work.. buggy firmware IMO...

Invest is a better router

depends on your budget
Netgears are always stable, good ol DG834 - bout 800 bucks odd or something.
Also look at putting that router into modem/bridging mode, cant remember if it allows for it. That disables the firewall and lets windows handle all forwarding..

Where can I get a netgear, also I have a mac, can I set up forwading on that,

have no idea how mac handles bridging, maybe another forummite can shed light on that.
Any reseller, supplier should sell netgears
