Router/NAT problems.

I've been playing online with a strict NAT for over 5 years now. I've finally decided to end my torment, but I'm not exactly the MILF hunter of motherboards, so to speak. I know next to nothing. First things first, finding my IP, right? ipconfig/all, blah blah, default gateway into browser, no? No. Doesn't work. Renew IP, then, my router's FAQ suggests. K. ipconfig/release then ipconfig/renew. Windows IP Configuration - Error yadda yadda the system cannot find the file specified. Ergo, it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

Although he could just be accessing your home network via a VPN tunnel. I'd ask him if he could help you access the settings next time you talk to him.[/quote] I got into my mothers house' router with no problems. My dad doesn't much more of a clue than I do. It's really odd that the default IP doesn't work, and neither does the one Linksys got me to look up.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] HD PVR [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] TheGreenAlloy Basically, ain't nobody can mess around in this unless they're connected here, either wirelessly or wired? Sound about right considering many routers have default IPs, but my father can alter the settings of our routers down in Protugal from here. What's up with that?[/quote] That is correct. Everything on your network has an internal IP address that is assigned by your router. Basically, the device talks to the router and then the router talks to the modem in order to access the Internet. It's obviously a little more complicated than that, though. Many routers have an option to enable remote access, but it's not something I'd recommend unless you have a [i]very[/i] strong password.[/quote] So this router could have remote access enabled?

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] CIint Beastwood lol, this isn't rocket science. Search online for your router's default IP, type it in, type in the admin password (unless you've already changed it to something else), then follow an online guide on how to open your NAT, if you don't know how to do it.[/quote] Typing my routers default IP into my browser gets me nowhere. Typing the Default Gateway IP from ipconfig/all gets me nowhere either.
