Question Port forwarding issues...
I am using the Actiontec MI424WR router that comes with Verizon FiOS. Basically it's that router with a V2 interface. There have been many noted problems with this router, such as an unbearably small NAT table, making torrents already very annoying. What's worse is that after following all the instructions on http://www.portforward.com/, the uTorrent port checker reports that the port is NOT being forwarded properly. The only way I can get it to forward is by setting DMZ host to the static IP address of my computer, and that only works with my Windows XP computer. On my Windows 7 Beta, setting its static IP of 192.168.1.9 to DMZ host does absolutely nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
