Hauwaei E960 Optus port fowarding problem

[Fahadkwx]

hi all im trying to portforward my Optus router Hawuei E960
I used simpleportforwarding program it didnt work, i also tried hyperterminal and it didnt work.
I need help please can someone help me over team viewer or something? pls help me out thanks.

Im trying to open port 6112-6113 for Warcraft 3

I save teamviewer as a last resort.

For now lets check how things are set up.

Post a screen shot of the main window of my simple port forwarding program. This will let me see the rule and your local IP.

Then post a screen shot of the port forwarding page in the router so I can see if the rule is setup correctly.

The rules in the router are wrong. You have them pointing right back to the router 192.168.1.1

Edit the rules in the router and change the local IP to 192.168.1.101

it wont let me add .101 at the end it just come back to .1

[Shane]

Thats very odd. SO you put int he whole IP 192.168.1.101 and it converts it back to .1?
I wonder if it is a bug in the router and is messing up on the formatting.

TO test this lets try a different IP, put in 192.168.1.145 and see if it holds.

yeah i did tried 192.168.1.101 and 192.168.1.145 and it doesnt change stays the same 192.168.1.1

[Shane]

Sounds like a bug in the router. OK lets try this. First remove the 2 rules. Then power cycle the router. Once it is back up we can try the rules again, or see if there is a DMZ page.

ok it worked i had to insert them twice with diff name
warcraft 192.168.1.101 6112-6112
wc3 192.168.1.101 6113-6113
i still cant host any game and yes i have DMZ i just enabled it and typed in this: 192.168.1.101 if i am not mistaken? thank you.

What does my port tester show? If it says it was successful then your all set on port forwarding.

If the port forwarding is working then make sure your firewall on your system isnt blocking your game

thank you again
