Sigh, Double portfowarding is the hardest thing ever.. please help

[smalttrain]

Alright, so I have spent countless hours trying to figure out double portforwarding. I've read guide after guide... with no luck. At one point I was able to actually do it for a week straight... then it stopped...

If anyone can please help me, please do so. I'll try to tell you as much information as I can.
My routers are a Cisco E2000, and a Vonage VT2142. When I open ipconfig, it says IPV4 address 192.168.1.114(preferred)
Default gateway 192.168.1.1
DHCP 192.168.1.1
DNS server 192.168.15.1
If I were to go onto my cisco router it would say under status Internet IP address is 192.168.15.4
I believe the 192.168.15.4 is my vonage router(that's what i type in to log into the admin part), and the 192.168.1.1 is my cisco.
If I were to go downstairs, my modem is directly connected to the vonage, and then the cisco is connected to the vonage.
Um, I believe I have to do something with DMZ because that's what I did before to get it working... if ANYONE is having the same problem, or could help me please do so. Thanks a lot

K this guide seems to make a little bit of sense, Im still questioning little things though, k so. It says for me to take my first router and set it up to go to my second router. When I log onto the second router I found a tab and it says "WAN dhcpc 174.54.70.89 Connected 5hr 58min 28sec NA". Im guessing that's the WAN address that the guide is asking me put that into the first router address. When I go to the DMZ part for my first router this is exactly what it says. It asks for Source IP and I have the option to click any IP address or put in my own. If I decided to put in my own, I put in 174.54.70.89. But it asks to after the address.. like this 174.54.70.89 to 100.
Im confused about that part and what to put...
Then after it asks Destination IP address and it has IP address already checked and it has 192.168.1.100

All the IPs you should be dealing with will be Local IPs such as 192.168.
If your router shows you internet address then that is the router you will be setting up DMZ in.

So log into the other router, find its WAN IP. That will be the IP you put in the DMZ in the first router


So...
Internet --> First Router (WAN IP of 174.54) --> 2nd router (WAN IP of 192.168)

k my first router ( the vonage), when I go to the port forwarding tab it says Lan IP: 192.168.15.4 and then it has DMZ next to it, when I click that it says "select a Lan IP addres" and it only has 192.168.15.4 as a choice, then I can click LAN clients and then Im able to make a new IP address.. I put the IP adress the hostname( I just put unknown) and then the MAC address( I put 48:5B:39:02:E9:53  that's what it says for my cisco router( the second one) under status) when I click ok.. it doesn't create a new one... just wonderful. I wish ya could just teamviewer it and like fix it =\

[Shane]

In the DMZ choose 192.168.15.4
That is the WAN ip of your cisco.

Save and then you may need to restart the router. But give that a try

Ok I've got it selected, now for my cisco router
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
  Source IP Address:   Any IP Address  <--- I didn't check this bubble I chose to put my own Ip address which is the next line.
    174.54.70.89 to ???  <---- is that the right IP address I should be putting, and if it is.. what do I put after to? 
 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
  Destination: IP Address: 192 . 168 . 1. 100    <--- is that the right destination IP?
MAC Address:  I have the bubble filled into to use the destination IP instead of the MAC address

For the cisco you shouldn't have any DMZ setup.

For the port forwarding rule you leave the source IP empty.

All that is needed is the Local IP of your computer (Which computer the port forwarding rule points to)
The ports and the Protocol TCP or UDP. Nothing more

I give up.

[Shane]

LOL, Never give up 

Post a few screen shots for me.

1. a screen shot of the DMZ page in the vontage.
2. screen shot of the port forwarding page in the cisco.
3. The main window of my SPF program (This will let me see your local Ip and the rules you want added)

I took a couple extra just in case

Ok 2 things.
Disable the DMZ in the Linksys E2000
Next remove any port forwarding rules from the vontage. DMZ is a opeb all ports rule. With DMZ in the vontage on the port forwarding rules are not needed.

Also I need a screen shot of the main window of my program so I can see your local IP.
I see by the rules you have them pointing to different local IPs.

The rules need to be pointing to your computers local IP. But I am seeing .100, .129 and .104 lol

You have DMZ enabled in the Cisco router. You don't need that and don't want it.

oh god. alright well I took the picture.. and I tried to go to photobucket to try to upload and I can't get on the site... this just started happening because I let a friend use team viewer and he went into my Local Area connection and changed the box from "chose any ip address" and tried to make it more static... I disconnected me.. and then I had to reset it back to it chosing an ip for me... we tried it again with the same luck... and since that time I've been able to talk to him on skype... and only be on certain websites (luckily this one still) But anyway, I use Simple Port Forwarding and when I opened the router it said IP: 192.168.1.124   Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 and gateway: 192.168.1.1
idk if that's what you wanted.. sorry I can't show ya a screenshot, I'm trying to figure out why the hell I can only go on certain sites now =S

[Shane]

Ok update the port forwarding rules to point to .124

Also try this to help with the sites

open a command window and put in ipconfig /flushdns
