    Default PFconfig programme???

    anyone used this to cofigure port forwarding to allow you to access the p3 for a external source?

    i have a netgear dgn2000 router, but am unsure exactly how to set it up etc to allow me to have this external function

    i have managed to be able to get to both the webserver and profilux control internally over wlan in my house but cant access from external

    I have a netgear router DG834GB here, I guess the settings are always quite similar

    these are my settings, maybe the menu names differ in your router

    under "rules for firewall" I added one entry for incoming service: all services, target IP the IP of the ProfiLux

    now if you don't have a static IP you have to get a dynamic DNS, enter these settings under "dynamic DNS" in the netgear router

    the default gateway setting in ProfiLux is also correct ? (must be the netgear IP)

    he belives it could well be my isp! did a search and my isp does not support port forwarding. there was a reply on the port forwarding question on that search, and it mentioned using a vpn!!

    what has this to do with the ISP?

    port forwarding is managed by your netgear router, if an request from "Outside" (Internet) for the port 10001 comes this request should be forwarded to the IP of the ProfiLux

    are you able to access your netgear router from the internet at all? E.g. "ping" your dynamic DNS? (enable ping service temporarily for this test in the netgear)
