Mac Question

[Nimbus]

Well the steps I gave should have gave you the Apple Wireless Password :o I'll post picture references for you incase there was a miscommunication.


System Preferences>Network>Select Airport>Advanced

This should access you to the information about all of the networks you have ever been connected to.


Select the Airport you are currently using>Hit the Pencil or Edit Button>Click Allow

You have to make sure you pick the airport you are using now and not the first one that pops up because it contains the password that is connected to your ip.



Once you've hit allow, click the box that says show password and your password will appear.

If you have done all of this and it is still giving you the wrong password or no password at all, then I am out of ideas. I hope that you find a way to successfully port forward :]

OH I ALMOST FORGOT:

You can do standard PC port forwarding procedures on a Mac through FireFox, that is how I port-forwarded.

http://www.portforward.com/

Use that link, it worked for me. Once again, best of luck!

Nimbus, are you sure that that would be the apple wireless pass?

[Nimbus]

That is the wireless password for that airport, I hope that is what you mean. If not I'm not quite sure what password your looking for, but if you get stuck, I strongly recommend trying standard port-forwarding on Firefox.

So that friend who was saying portforwarding through the router's page using webbrowser wouldn't work, was wrong!

I would strongly advise using the router page.

This is the password I'm talking about.
And on the portforward.com thing I can't figure out which one is mine. :(

[Nimbus]

Okay this is exactly how I port-forwarded, if this does not work, I am completely out of ideas, but out of all ways to do it this is definitely the best way.

1.) Open Firefox
2.) Type in 192.168.1.1 in the address bar



3.) When the password box comes up leave username empty and type admin in the password



4.) You'll access the site, click on the Applications and Gaming Tab
5.) Type in Application- blockland, Start- 28000, End- 28030, Protocol- Both, IP Address- You finish the blank! Then Click Enable!



6.) Hit Save Changes at the Bottom
7.) Success!



I'm almost 100% sure this will work for you if you have Firefox

Ugh, I wish I had FireFox, I use Safari. D:

I use Safari too, but I downloaded Firefox just to do this.

You can erase it as soon as you're done Port-Forwarding, and it is free.

If you really want to host this is the way to do it :D

[Solid]

Nimbus, if this works, I will love you forever and give you admin on my server. :D

You don't have to do that, I enjoy helping my fellow Blocklanders :]

[Solid]

I got this when I entered what you said.



Maybe I need to type something else in, is 192.168.1.1 your IP Address?

[Nimbus]

Enter 192.168.1.1 in the address bar.
If nothing happens, try 192.168.1.100 or 192.168.1.101 or even 192.168.1.102

Nope, it's not my IP Address, try these other two, one has to work.


Oh, and it should be in System Preferences>Network>Advanced>TCP/IP Tab

It's the number after Router

[Solid]

None of them worked, what the forget is wrong with my computer.

Wait, is it possible to not have a public IP address?

[Solid]

Enter 192.168.1.1 in the address bar.
If nothing happens, try 192.168.1.100 or 192.168.1.101 or even 192.168.1.102

Nope, it's not my IP Address, try these other two, one has to work.


Oh, and it should be in System Preferences>Network>Advanced>TCP/IP Tab

Ooooooh. I get it now.
