Tom: Apologies in advance for the shameless promotion here, but it just so happens to solve your problem. :)
One way to get VNC to work without needing to configure your router at all is to use Kaboodle. Via the KaboodleProxy capability (see http:///www.Kaboodle.org/KaboodleProxy.html), neither side of the connection needs to touch their firewall/router at all. Plus the VNC connection is now Zebedee-secured. It's free to try, cheap to buy, and very well supported :) I'm currently working on modifying the VNC Server and Viewer so that they can utilize an echoServer (like KaboodleProxy) directly without having to be tunneled as part of a Kaboodle VPN connection. It should be fairly straightforward as the "hard part" of the proxy coding is already done. hope this helps, Scott > If anyone is online tonight, I could use some help. > > I have the following setup: > > Internet -> ActionTec Broadband DSL Gateway modem -> DLink wireless router -> LAN > > Both the ActionTec and the DLink routers support port forwarding, which I have > specified as ports 5800 thru 5900 on the ActionTec and 5800 thru 5900 on the DLink > router as well. > > When I go to www.gotomyvnc.com and check my IP for open ports.....NONE are open. > > Can someone help me? > > Tom _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
