Hi folks,
Thanks, in advance, for your patience with this
(common) question.
I've looked through the past archives and tried
everything I could find but I'm still having no luck
in getting around my router. Most of the posts I read
were a couple of years old so I'm hoping there's some
better information out there now.
I'm running Darwin Streaming Server 5.5 on a G4 500
MHz with OS X 10.3.9. My router is a Belkin Pre-N
(but the computer is not on wireless).
Internally everything works fine with both files and
live broadcasts. When I try the external IP, however,
I get "connection failed" on a Windows machine and
"Network error -66559) and also QT error -5420 on a
Mac. Of course, if I plug the DSS computer into the
cable modem directly it uses the extenal IP and works
fine.
I thought that putting my DSS machine in the DMZ (and
turning off the router firewall) would solve the
problem but it didn't . How can the router still
block the ports if the machine is in the DMZ? I know
my service provider isn't blocking them since a direct
connection works.
I then went in and configured the virtual server
functions to route every port (both UDP and TCP) that
DSS might seem to need to the DSS computer. Still no
luck. I have stream over port 80 selected and can
stream locally with :80 added and also with :554 (so
they both work locally).
What am I missing? Or is it just not possible?
Any help - especialy from you lucky folks who have
made it work - would be great
Thanks
Allynn
