Chalk

i have no idea what your trying to do ....

id guess that you might be looking to use a file sharing program
search for the name of it and youll find your answer

or else search for pinhole setup
that might help

Broadband routers allow an ethernet and usb connection.
Your computers will be assigned ip addresses by the router, so you should able to share files

i am using Quick n' easy FTP server
and it don't work ! no one accept my self can get in ,i tryied to look around ! and done some changes to the pinhole thing by following this guide
http://www.portforward.com/netopia/Cayman3300-portforwarding.htm i put external port start and end to 21 and don't know what i need to put for internal port so i left it blank, and restarted evrything but still not working ! what is wrong?

here is the address i can acces to but no one else can ftp://silencer:worldcup@192.168.1.4:21
i got the ip address by doing ipconfig in dos

Chalk

firstly,
you need to set the internal port to 21 to make it work

secondly,
192.168.1.4 is your lan ip
you need to find your extenal ip
www.whatismyip.org
should do the trick

thirdly,
if you ahvent got a static ip,
eircom , so id guess not

head over to www.no-ip.com to get a free redirect and a program that updates the dns when your ip changes

i don't get it it says If your IP address has changed it will notify our dns servers and update the IP corresponding to your No-IP/No-IP+ hostname
what dose that have to do wit me?
i mean what dose this no ip give me? how dose it help me?

Chalk

it lets you have a free addres like www.myftp.org that points dircetly to your ip,
no matter how often it changes
saves you having to remember a new ip every morning
or worrying if your router reset it sefl will you stilll be able to access your ftp in the afternoon
