[lug] Can't port forward through Qwest Linksys

[George Sexton]

Some hosting companies block port 80 by default so you can't run servers.
Try setting up forwarding from port 8080 to internal port 80 and see what it
does for you.

Subject: [lug] Can't port forward through Qwest Linksys

 

I have an "internal" machine that I want to be able to get to port 80 and
22.

Using Qwest with Linksys E3000-n dual band wireless.

Followed instructions for port forwarding for that linksys, everything looks
OK.  But just times out with external ssh and http

Wondering about "filter anonymous internet requests".  Instructions don't
mention it.
But the manual says:
Filter Anonymous Internet Requests.
 When enabled, .... It also hides your network ports. ... This filter is
enabled by default. Select Disabled to allow anonymous Internet requests.


Any thoughts on what the problem could be?
