APPENDIX C | Frequently Asked Questions

Put some of the information that we are finding out with NoHold here – for examples the
following information is in the linksys manual.


Does the Router support ICQ send file?
Yes, with the following fix: click ICQ menu -> preference -> connections tab->, and check I am

behind a firewall or proxy. Then set the firewall time-out to 80 seconds in the firewall setting. The
Internet user can then send a file to a user behind the Router.


I set up an Unreal Tournament Server, but others on the LAN cannot join. What do I need to

do?
If you have a dedicated Unreal Tournament server running, you need to create a static IP for each

of the LAN computers and forward ports 7777, 7778, 7779, 7780, 7781, and 27900 to the IP address
of the server. You can also use a port forwarding range of 7777 ~ 27900. If you want to use the UT

Server Admin, forward another port. (Port 8080 usually works well but is used for remote admin.
You may have to disable this.) Then in the [UWeb.WebServer] section of the server.ini file, set the

ListenPort to 8080 (to match the mapped port above) and ServerName to the IP assigned to the
Router from your ISP.


Can multiple gamers on the LAN get on one game server and play simultaneously with just one

public IP address?
It depends on which network game or what kind of game server you are using. For example, Unreal

Tournament supports multi-login with one public IP.

How do I get Half-Life: Team Fortress to work with the Router?
The default client port for Half-Life is 27005. The computers on your LAN need to have
“+clientport 2700x” added to the HL shortcut command line; the x would be 6, 7, 8, and on up.

This lets multiple computers connect to the same server. One problem: Version 1.0.1.6 won’t let
multiple computers with the same CD key connect at the same time, even if on the same LAN (not

a problem with 1.0.1.3). As far as hosting games, the HL server does not need to be in the DMZ.
Just forward port 27015 to the local IP address of the server computer.


Will the Router function in a Macintosh environment?

Yes, but the Router’s setup pages are accessible only through Internet Explorer 4.0 or Netscape
Navigator 4.0 or higher for Macintosh.


I am not able to get the web configuration screen for the Router. What can I do?

You may have to remove the proxy settings on your Internet browser, e.g., Netscape Navigator or
Internet Explorer. Or remove the dial-up settings on your browser. Check with your browser

documentation, and make sure that your browser is set to connect directly and that any dial-up is
disabled. Make sure that your browser is set to connect directly and that any dial-up is disabled.

For Internet Explorer, click Tools, Internet Options, and then the Connection tab.

Make sure that Internet Explorer is set to [Never dial a connection]. For Netscape Navigator, click
Edit, Preferences, Advanced, and Proxy. Make sure that Netscape Navigator is set to [Direct

connection to the Internet].

How do I get mIRC to work with the Router?
Under the Port Forwarding tab, set port forwarding to 113 for the PC on which you are using mIRC.

How do I reset the Router?
Press the Reset button on the back panel for about ten seconds. This will reset the Router to its

default settings.
