    Before I die, I will check out your blog and make some comments. You've been a big help. Thank you very much. "Retired Programmer". So, please be patient.

    Port forwarding headache

    The closest thing I can find for custom port numbers is the MiFi provides the ability to download its config data in a text file and also to upload a config file. I'm going to try something here and hope I don't blow myself out of the water. Within the downloaded config file is the following...

    Port forwarding headache

    Found a setting on the TZO setup that would explain the redirect to https. There was a checkbox to "Enable SSL forwarding" - was recommended and defaulted to this. I'd prefer using SSL, but looks like the MiFi won't let me. I unchecked the checkbox. Would you please try now to see if the...

    Port forwarding headache

    Actually, I have port forwarded the Linksys router. Unfortunately, I do not have a handle for it on the MiFi as best I can tell. Here's the entire list I can work with on the MiFi. All I can do is check a given item and enter an IP to forward to. Application IP Address on WLAN DNS (Domain...

    Interesting. I just had my son try and he was able to connect, too, but got a browser error when he attempted anything. I'll have to review permissions and web setup, but I think maybe you have uncovered the secret. "Retired Programmer". So, please be patient.

    Port forwarding headache

    Wait a minute. I just realized what you said. "I noticed though that if I drop the s from https://www.kerrplunk.hphomeserver.com to http://www.kerrplunk.hphomeserver.com it works so I think this is your problem." Are you saying you could access my server using...

    Port forwarding headache

    I'm using TZO.com for the IP translation. The IP is, in fact, 75.226.238.59. My server is a Windows Home Server and I'm not sure I can change the port assignment. But, even if I could, the port forwarding ability on the MiFi is predefined to specific protocols, no port numbers shown. As for...

    Port forwarding headache

    As mentioned, my ISP is Verizon Wireless. Although, Verizon will not admit it, I am convinced they are blocking port 80. I used to have Hughesnet as my ISP and I was able to set up port forwarding to my Home server. Since changing to first Alltel then Verizon, I have not been able to make it...

    Port forwarding headache

    muckermucker - I understand what you have said and totally agree. Yes, the MiFi (Verizon MiFi 2200 Hotspot) is a modem and router. I am aware of the internal IP (192.168.0.1). My Linksys connects to the MiFi router and thru DHCP is assigned the IP 192.168.0.2 (only device connected to MiFi)...

    Port forwarding headache

    The firewall is configured. I had Hughesnet satellite as my ISP earlier and I was able to configure my router (WRT54G before Tomato firmware) to forward port 80 to the WHS. I was able to access my WHS from a remote site using TZO to translate the IP. Since switching to Verizonwireless and the...

    Port forwarding headache

    That option is apparently not available on the MiFi. The only option available is "HTTP (Web) Server". Should I forward that to the WRT54G LAN IP (192.168.1.2) then forward 8080 to the WHS? "Retired Programmer". So, please be patient.

    WRT54G >> WET54G >> MiFi

    Okay, my real reason for wanting this was to have all my computers on the LAN appear as the same IP to the WiFi. I got around this by using 2 WRT54G's with one set up as a wireless client bridge between the router and the LAN. The 2nd router serves as a WAP. So, this problem is more or less...

    Port forwarding headache

    I have a rather convoluted Internet connection and can't get port forwarding to work - need help. I have a Verizon MiFi 2200 as my modem. It is linked to my LAN using a Linksys WRT54G with Tomato 1.28 as a wireless client - "brouter". The brouter makes a wireless connection to the MiFi and...

    WRT54G >> WET54G >> MiFi

    I have a MiFi 2200, a WET54G bridge and a WRT54G router. In order to provide Internet access to computers on the LAN, I have bridged between the MiFi & router. Works fine. However, to get this to work I had to connect the bridge to a LAN port on the router. I would prefer to bridge between...
