Detect Multiple Routers

[SeroujK]

The program "Detect Multiple Routers" is detecting 2 routers, but I only have one router which is THOMSON TG585 v7.
I have a ADSL Internet (my router is connected to my home's phone, and to my PC with a cable)

so where is my SECOND Router which that program is detecting?? :S
and if I really have a second router, how can I connect to it?

Thank you

[Shane]

How the program works is by doing a trace router.

open a command window and type in tracert www.google.com

(this is what the program does) the program then looks at the first 5 hops. Then looks at each on and checks if it is a local address. So hop 1 will be the ip of your router. I bet hop 2 is a local address as well. I have seen some ISP's have people behind a proxy, so that proxy ip is a local IP.

May I ask who your ISP is?

In the program you see at the bottom what IP's the program is looking for that are considered private (local) IP's as the standard.

Let me know

my ISP is INCONET (IDM.NET.LB)

anyway, to check what's written in the bottom of the program, I opened it, and I clicked on "Check now" again, and the result was 1, I clicked the botton 2 and 3 times, and I got 2, and after several clicks, I even got 0 ROUTERS :S I'm kinda confused...

anyway, this is what is written on the bottom of the program:
Private IP Address Ranges To Look For:

10.0.0.0 – 10.0.255.255
10.1.0.0 – 10.1.255.255
10.10.0.0 – 10.10.255.255
172.16.0.0 – 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 – 192.168.255.255

oh it bugs me when my stuff doesn't work right!  >

I made that program in an hour yesterday, lol the tests I did worked perfect, I must need to do more testing!

Would you mind helping out? We can get on msn or yahoo, I can make a new exe and see if we can get a more accurate result. I must have missed something simple.
When I try it I can click on check now a dozen times and its always the same answer. So I am very curious whats going on with yours.

Do this real fast for me. open a command window and do say 4 trace routes

tracrt www.google.com

do that 4 times (the same one, I want to make sure its the same results each time) and post the results for each one.

ok I see what is happening, your ISP is using local ip's on their network.

  2   298 ms   238 ms   242 ms  10.150.32.1
  3   322 ms   184 ms    56 ms  10.0.1.6

the program is seeing hop #3 the 10.0. is what is triggering the program.

Do me a fav real fast, log into your router, check the wan Status, what is the WAN ip of your router? and does it match the same IP that shows up here for you? http://www.pcwintech.com/port_test.php

hhmm I have the program look at the first 5 hops, the only way to have it detect right for you is to have it only check the first 2.

Let me know

Shane

[SeroujK]

In The Port Status Tool: Your Internet IP Address: **.**.***.** (private, I think u already know it)

In My Router: (I don't know if this is what u asked for)
TCP/IP Settings
         
IP Address:   10.150.37.115/32
Default Gateway:   10.150.0.1
Primary DNS:   193.227.177.53
Secondary DNS:   -



by the way, I sent my MSN address to u as a PM...

[Shane]

ok your isp has you behind a proxy. Thats why your internet IP isn't matching the IP in your router. So port forwarding is not going to work for you since you are in reality behind another giant router, your ISP's.

I have updated the program to now only detect
10.0.0.0 – 10.0.0.255
instead of
10.0.0.0 – 10.0.255.255

so hop 3 wont be counted any more. The goal of the program is to see how many routers the user is behind, not what their ISP has them behind. So it should work now for you and report 1 router.
You will need to call your ISP and see what options they give you for port forwarding. Im very curious to know.


Let me know how the new exe does for you. And thanks a ton for bringing this to my attention!

Shane

[SeroujK]

I've downloaded the new one, and it says 1 and ONLY 1 lol

and about calling my ISP, that's not a good idea, cz maybe if they found out that I'm using such a P2P program, they will change my account from "unlimited @ night" to LIMITED (4gb down and 4gb up).
and about the unlimited @ night:
"Dear IDM ADSL customer, your telephone line is Unlimited nights and double the speed enabled thus allowing you to download freely from 11 PM to 7 AM at double the speed."

anyway, thank u

[Shane]

lol Take care bud.
Again thanks for helping me make my little program a little better

Shane

[SeroujK]

thx, welcome, and Keep making such good useful programs :D
