VNC and Netopia Wireless Router

    Hi,

    I am trying to connect to a PC behind an Eircom Netopia Router (3347nwg). As far as I can see from the manuel it only can be configured via a telnet connection. Does anybody know if it is possible to open ports for incoming connections and do a port-forward? Is there maybe a webinterface to the router ? I am in Germany so I am not in front of the PC. Any advice welcome.

    this is possible by forwarding the ports required by VNC to your local IP address on the router. www.portforward.com shud tell ya how for your router

    open port 5900 if you want to use the vnc app. if you want to use a web browser open port 5800 & 5900.

    http://broadbandsupport.eircom.net should have support on this.

    The netopias call it a "pinhole". As far as I remembers the section can be found on the router config page under expert mode > yes to warning > configuration > NAT
