Title: Static IP and router
Post by: Hess on September 06, 2007, 08:19:14 am
Ok, heres my situation...

Mex helped me to set up a static IP so I could open up ports to host a server...

But then the internet was upgraded to a network shared between 3 computers.

I have a internet router (Thomson Speedtouch 530) and a network router (Belkin Wireless G Router) that distributes the internet to the 3 computers.

Since then, no one has been able to connect to my test server, I can't host shoutcast and I can't even see the list of servers in the MTA client (so I need to go to game-monitor to get the info)...

I think this is something to do with me not being able to open ports, but before I got this network everything worked fine...

I have a question that if i can get a correct answer may solve this, if I change routers or have another router connected do I need to set up a static IP again?

You need to open ports in your wireless router as well as in your internet router.
Best thing is to make the wireless IP static as well, then in the router make the ports that you need open for UDP traffic.
You only need static IP for the computer that runst the test server, the others can stay dynamic. Leave DHCP on the wireless router on.

These are non-routable IP's:
10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255

Any other IP you have is a routable one. As for obtaining one outside the city network, this will work only if you change internet provider.

I do not know if Gandalf gave you the soloution, but to get your Router IP, you just need to go on "Start meny" and then "Drive" ore what it stands in English Pc's and then you just write cmd there, and in CMD you write ipconfig, then you look at Standard gateway : There is an IP, mine is 192.168.1.254 (I use Jensen Scandinavia) and then you just open the IE, ore FF if you use that, and write that in. It will come "Username and Password", it will be admin, if no one in your house have set a password on it! Then you just have to write admin in username, and leave password empty.

I don't know if this was your problem, but good luck! =)

Swig, the system in Romania is a little different from what we are used to.
As high-speed internet is expensive they share one highspeed connection with many families/houses. This makes it affordable for all.  ;)
