[bcab] Re: router remote management

Steve,

I think there is some confusion here. What I was sayinhg to Barry was that I
could reach his router on port 8080 from my home Internet connection. I
merely mentioned in passing that it was a VM account. This method of
Internet connection definitely DOES NOT use a proxy server. It is a direct
Internet connection. What I suggested to Barry was that his problem of not
being able to access the same thing from his work account was that this is
probably going via a proxy server. That is the normal way work-based
networks access the Internet. I was suggesting he specifically exclude the
IP address/name he is trying to reach from going via the proxy server. You
do this in IE -> tools -> Internet options then connections tab and LAN
settings button.

Your comment about all traffic going through a proxy with VM makes no sense
to me I'm afraid. There is no proxy involved in my connection to the
Internet from home using VM.

I came to VM as I was originally a virgin.net customer. I must say I have
found the service, though not the cheapest out there, very reliable and have
had good experience using their tech support.


Regards,
Phil.

Hi Phil,

Unfortunately, with Virgin Media, you can't exclude the proxy, because all
traffic is routed through the proxy, and no arguments.  I hate VM but it is
the best performing connection in my area, and I hate DSL even more <Smile>.

All the best

Steve

Hi Barry,

Port 8080 definitely still works. I've just tried it from my VM account here
at home and I get your Linksys WRT300N login screen up.

All this points to the problem being caused by the proxy server your work is
likely to be using to get you out on to the net. Have you tried altering
your IE settings to exclude the target from going via the proxy. This might
work.

Cheers,
Phil.

Steve,

At the time you sent this mail I had changed the port to, 8080 again.

I was able to log on from my parents connection in Belfast and theyre on
VM as well.

It's good it's secure but I'm trying to get in from work this morning
and I've a feeling it's going to just timeout again.  Even on a fairly
standard port of 8080.

Hi Barry,

Neither work.  I get the IP address while it is trying to connect, I see
you are on Virgin Media (Smile), but then it gives me the good old Can't
display the page stuff.

All the best

Steve

Steve,

You don't' need to open the port.  The router auto does this if you
specify the port to be used in remote man.

Do me a favour try one of the following,

http://djpaddy.is-a-geek.com:4836

Djpaddy.is-a-geek.com:4836

Do you get anything?

I was testing it last night and it looked like it was working both
internally and externally.  Now I've got to work and tried it it's
timing out.  That could be our works proxy though, but I'd like to make
sure.  Please try those addresses, and anyone else that's feeling kind.
