Telkom POTS router port forwarding

[hobbit72]

The telkom router comes with no technical documentation, and no web support of any kind. I cant even find the thing on google! What junk have I been sold?

I have looked around in the router web menus but there is no mention of port forwarding. How do you do this?

Thanks in advance

The port forwarding is called PAT in the menus if I remember correctly.

How do you forward the ports?

You need to upgrade your ADSL Router Pots firmware from the marconi site.

http://www.m-newera.co.za/pdf/ADSL%20Router-%20SW%20Upgrade.zip

Then, in the Basic Config- PAT menu, add an entry to forward

eg:
Index:1
Protocol:UDP
Interface:ATM1
Service Name:EDONKEY
Port:6003
Server IP Address:192.168.10.100(your machine)
Server Port:6003

Job done- All WAN side mapping must be ATM1

Anybody know how to stop the Apache server on the router from listening on the "outside" interface? I would like to forward TCP port 80 (HTTP) to a machine on the "inside".

Simply add port 80 in the PAT menu (TCP) and it will work. The IP address you supply is the IP of your machine on the "inside".

If you are running the device as a router then follow Andre's advice but it seems to me that the device is functioning as a PPPoE modem or you would not be asking this question.

In that case you can do the following on your linux machine
(assume 192.168.2.10 is target address)

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.2.10

So let understand this. If I want to use say Pc-Anywhere (port 5631 & 5632) I would simply open the port on the router and route it to my local PC ?
