  • Accessing web server behind a router?

    Hi all,

    I have a Netgear RT-311 cable modem router and was wondering if it's
    possible to set it up so when I access my external IP, the router actually
    sends out the web pages that are available on my machine (on a private IP
    behind the NAT router)?

    Cheers,

    -SteveC-

    you should be able to config it, start a browser... ie/netscape and type in ur ip of the router, for eg. my router's ip 192.168.1.1 so i put in:
    http://192.168.1.1

    and it might start a configuration program, i dunno about your router, it might be telnet or something like that... you may want to check the website....

    but ur router should be configurable somehow...

      Yeah - I know how to configure it. I can either access via the web - and not get too many options. Or if I telnet into it, I can change loads of options (I've had to do a bit of configuring to do with MAC addresses already). But, what do I change?!

        I don't know anything about that particular router, but if you can add a static route, TCP Mapping or similiar, that's your choise.

        What you need is to set the static route between EXT.EXT.EXT.EXT:80 to INT.INT.INT.INT:80. For web use, that is.

          You have to make sure that the router supports port mapping or similar . Then, configure it so that when it detects incoming petitions through port 80, it redirects to your local (intranet ) IP .
          It´s really easy when you get the knowledge, I use it every once and then because I give remote IT service/support to many companies by accessing through their routers to local servers and/or workstations. That way I dont move from home

            I finally sussed it, if anyone ever comes across the same router as me and wants to know how:

            This may well be the wrong way of going about it, but it worked for me:

            In menu 21 (telnetting into the router) I stopped the router dropping port
            80 packets in filter #3. Then in menu 15, I told it to send everything
            ('default' one in the list) to my private IP (192.168.0.2)
