Port Forwarding on an NH20
I'm trying to forward a port on the NH20 router/modem. While forwarding ports on older models of a modem was easy and also well-documented, forwarding ports on this router is relatively far more complicated. I've tried to forward the port 2342 - entering the port under both the LAN and WAN port. With it, I've entered the protocol as UDP, the source IP as my Laptop (The device I'm using to host a video game server, which is the origin of about 55% of all needs to forward ports today) which is 192.168.1.162, and the Destination IP as that of the WiFi Hub on my network: 192.168.1.34. So far, this hasn't worked. What am I doing wrong?2.4KViews0likes1CommentRe: The Default Gateway/Router Password DOES NOT Work, At All.
Alright, so I think I get what you're referring to... to an extent. So my modem is affixed to the wall, that's true. But I've only noticed there's two parts; the first is the physical modem... thing... that's attached to the wall proper. That's presumably where the optic-fibre input/output is located. The second part is a white, plastic, rectangular prism that takes a cable from the part of the modem attached to the wall, and subsequently has a few Ethernet cables and ports coming out of the device. On this device, I've only found a sticker that has the technical specifications (E.g. required power, certifications, etc.). It's clear the greater plastic shell can be taken off, and is secured with 5 phillips screws. Is this the "outside cover" you refer to? And if so, is it necessary I must remove this "outside cover" to access the default password for the router? In the case that it is necessary - is it possible there's another way? Potentially a method to change the modem's password from outside the modem, and subsequently log in? Thanks in advance.43KViews1like1CommentRe: The Default Gateway/Router Password DOES NOT Work, At All.
Okay, I did not mean to mark your reply as an answer. But it is greatly appreciated. Last night, I decided to inspect the white box on my wall that has the actual optic fiber cable... thing... in it. However, all I could find on it were specifications. Where would I be able to find the default password for the router?44KViews0likes5CommentsThe Default Gateway/Router Password DOES NOT Work, At All.
I have no idea what it's officially called - the physical design of this piece of technology is not only ridiculous, but cumbersome to work with, and also lacks important information on it unless you're willing to jostle it around trying to observe its nooks and crannies - but it's shaped like an egg, and is the router of my network. It's the model that has a plastic shell on the bottom as opposed to a lid on the top. I'm trying to log into my router's settings by entering the IPv4 address of the router (192.168.1.254) into a web browser, entering admin as the username, and entering in the password (Not the one to connect to the network - the one that's labelled, and I quote, "Admin Password" - only for it to tell me that I didn't enter in the correct credentials. I've tried everything - typing in the password a million times while constantly checking for errors, using different login names, and I just recently did a FACTORY RESET of the router. No dice. What's going on here?Solved45KViews2likes7CommentsRe: Connecting a Router to Another Router as a Layer 2/3 Switch (?)
It's a Telus Wi-Fi Modem T3200M. Now that I see it's referred to as a "modem", I'm worried this may be in vain. But regardless, it's also running nothing but the stock software. Not even the passwords have been changed.6.6KViews0likes2CommentsConnecting a Router to Another Router as a Layer 2/3 Switch (?)
Hi. Excuse my likely misuse of terminology, it's been a good while since I've gotten any sort of education on Networking and the OSI Model. I've recently acquired a laptop that does not have any WLAN card. Obviously, that means that it can only work through Ethernet. However, my router is on the ground-level floor of my home, and I am a literal basement dweller. As a result, using the internet with this laptop - which is something I want to do - is a no-go. I do have an old router, however. I was wondering if it's possible to go into the Router's settings, and make a wireless connection to the current Router/Network that has access to the internet. Then, using this Old Router as an intermediary, I can connect the laptop to this Old Router and gain access to the internet through the Ethernet connection. Is this possible? If so, how would I go about doing it? And please feel free to ask for any clarification. Regards.6.6KViews0likes8Comments
