PLEASE HELP – Flowpoint Port Forwarding

by ahaimsky3 . Updated 24 years, 7 months ago

Hi, I have a program called “Remotely Anywhere” (It’s like almost any other remote control program, so if you haven’t heard of it, it doesn’t really matter) through which one can control a remote pc through the use of any Java-enabled browser. Anyway, here’s my problem: I’d like to set up the server side at work, where the network is connected to dsl through a Flowpoint 144 router. Now I think that this has a firewall built-in (not sure) because there is one ip address the router uses, and thenevery computer is set to use an internal ip (192.168.254.x). I need to connect to one of these computers remotely…! The instructions say that in a situation like this, port forwarding must be set up on the router. I downloaded the program to control the flowpoint router, but it’s instructions were pretty impossible to understand. I also need to get rid of the password the isp set on the router, but I THINK I know how to do that. Anyway, pleeeeeease help. I really need to get this setup as soon as possible. THANKS!!!!!!!! Also, in a perfect world, I would like to set up all the computers on the network with this program and be able to control ANY of them remotely. I guess when I punch in the public IP address (same as the one the router’susing) I should get a list of computers that I can connect to…? Right? I’m so confused… Anyway, if you only know how to make it forward to a single computer, that information will be great for now. If anyone feels like throwing in some VPN setuppointers under this setup as well, I would be ever so grateful (I know, I’m pushing my luck =) ) Thanks again!!!
