Forwarded ports for mac using posted manual, still not working.
comr4de:
So i followed the instructions for forwarding ports on a mac, and my servers still show up as dead.
I will post screenshots of the steps, to see if I am doing something wrong.
What am I doing wrong.

Dude, I wish I could get that far, my Mac doesn't register my router.

The stickied Mac guide will only work for Airport routers. For other routers use the "router ip into favourite web browser" approach.
Comr4de, a few questions -
Do you have an Airport router? (or other Mac (specific) router)
Are you sure the 10.1.1.5 is your internal IP?
Does the router "save and restart" after you do this?

Yes, but it's one of the new ones with a built in hard drive.
No, I'm not sure thats my internal IP.
No, but it has an update button that restarts the router and updates it.

Check your IP against the 10.1.1.5
Do you do the update after you have applied the forwarding?
