Problem with Netgear router

[Birt, Jeffrey]

Your router may have some firewall features or NAT (network address
translation) built into it.  My Netgear router does.  If that's the case
you need to go into the routers configuration screen (via web browser
usually), and tell it which ports to allow through and what machine to
send them too.

Subject: Problem with Netgear router

 

Hello,

I have installed Fedora Core 3 and I have apache webserver running which
came installed with fedora.I have a DSL connection and the modem product
is actiontec.I have netgear router connected to this modem and 2 more
windows systems connected to this router.

I was unable to get to the website when connected to the router but
without router it worked.

I have the linux server on a static ip 192.168.0.51 and I openend the
port 8080 for the webserver to this mac on the router settings , the
netgear router uses port 80 for its web interface, but still it did not
work.

Do I have to try something different, can I make it work with a
router(or any other brand of router) ?

Thanks.
Janu
