Bypassing my D-Link Router with a firewall:
Is there anyone who uses a D-Link router registered here? Everything works fine when I am connecting to someone else's server, but when I try to connect to my own, I get a 1017 error, which is obviously caused by the firewall.
I've also looked through the manuel, and I've tried everything from opening the ports needed, to making the whole router into a DMZ (where everything bypasses the firewall). It sets up a different IP for each computer, so that each computer can be recognized, and I am actually wondering if that may pose a problem also.
Would anyone happen to know if there would be a way to set up the IP's in the .bat file and .ini file, so that I could specify the main IP address, then the one for my computer within the network? Maybe something like how domains are set up with the "www.blah.com/subdirectory/blah.html"... is it possible to do that with IP addresses, making it something like "mainIP/subIP"?
As you can probably tell, I am really determined to get a server up and running... but this router is just a thorn in my side. I am going to try setting it up near this computer (this one is on a wireless connection to the router), and having my other computer on the wireless connection... If I can it set up like that somehow, then maybe I can get something going...
One more question... are there such things as ethernet cable splitters? That would make my problem so much easier to solve.
