Remote problems

Post by shawkolate »

first off i have a linksys wrt54g router. i cannot connect to me net jukebox account using the ip connect. i set up a www.dyndns.com free dynamic dns. i have disabled firewalls, set a forward port but i still can't connect (i am using computers on the same network to connect is that a problem?)
Thanks

Can you ping your dyndns address? What if you try to connect directly to your ip address? You should be able to connect using the WAN address from another computer on your LAN, but have you tried connecting to netjukebox using your LAN ip address to make sure it's running properly?

Some routers don’t allow you to see your WAN ip address form inside the LAN.
With some routers you must enable NAT loopback.

You can always check if your website is visible from the internet with:
