Topic: VPN+router

Did you also setup port forwarding for 47 and 1723 per the port mapping page on homepagez.com. You have to get past the nat in the router and to the server and the passthru setup on that first page might not be enough to make it work. I use a Linksys instead of the USR but the setup is similar and the port forwarding is necessary.

Hi
port mapping as on homepagez.com isn't enought.
Infact sme server need port 1723 (TCP) and 47 (GRE), but protocol gre isn't available on the port mapping.

At the moment, launching the VPN connection from the client I saw the Verification of user name and password, but the error 619 "The specified port is not connected".

The same client (changing the ip of the server from external to internal) arrives to the sme server when inside the LAN, so the problem is the usr9003 router.


Somebody knows how pass through an usr9003 and connect via VPN a e-smith server?

Thanks a lot

If it does not have a DMZ, then replace the router with the SME box. It will route well and handle what needs done. If you need a wireless access point, use the USR for that. There are too many ports used by the server to try to forward them all. Use the machine as it was designed to be used.
