How to connect from localhost-router-Internet-router-localhost Port 3456?
Hi
Each Router has a menu to perform Port Forwarding (it might be called differently on your specific Router). You simply indicate in this menu that you want to open Port xxx toward the computer with a Local IP of 192.168.xx.xx (If your LAN IPs tend to shift assign to the computer in question a static IP). In general, http://www.ezlan.net/routers1.html Jack (MS, MVP-Networking) "Ken Philips" wrote in message ... Assume I have an successful working in-house LAN with a router which works as well as gateway to the internet. Now I want to test how a client on my local computer works with a server on my local computer. When I connect both directly on my machine then everything works fine. However I want to find out if they cooperate as well if they are connected through the Internet. In such a case possible difficulties regarding Firewall, NAT port forwarding, DNS lookup and others would be detected. How can a simulate such an routing over the Internet? How can I force my local computer not to take the easy, direct way but to redirect all TCP/IP packets through the internet? Using a Proy somewhere in the world would not work because proxies do only work for port 80 and http protocol. How can I achieve a similar routing for lets say communication over port 3456? Ken |

Ken in summary on you local area network, you would like to access to a PC which is again on the same LAN using Routers external IP right? i have the same problem, any help will be appriciated |

Ken your router should support "NAT loopback", note that this feature is not supported by most of the home routers |
