Well I discovered that not only is my fideliphone port not forwarded but nor are the other ports I have to forward. I followed the directions n my linksys router and made sure the right IP was used, meaning the internal IP my computer has for the network. I also checked the enable box that was there. So what other steps do I take? this is having me pull my hair out in many a confusion as I was able to do this with the other router I had. Thanks.
