Hello people,
We are using web-based accounting software. Internally, everybody is accessing the software by going to: http://192.168.1.101:8080/POS. It will show the bellow screen.
Now, we want to make this software available ONLINE on the internet.

Facts:
- Server (where 192.168.1.101 is) is online on the internet 24/7
- Our WRT54GS ver 1.1 is based on DD-WRT v23 SP1.
- I am using a remote computer using DIAL UP connection trying to connect to our web-based acounting software. I always get a PAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED everytime I type (http://222.125.11.233/POS) or even (http://222.125.11.233:8080/POS). However, I can ping our server IP address 222.125.11.233 just OK from the remote computer using dial up.
The question is now..how to setup the PORT forwarding and stuff on WRT54GS so someone outside our office can access the web-based accounting software?[img][/img]

Hi lautamas,
this is very easy.
Just go to the "Application & Gaming" Tab and then to "Port Forward".
Enter here the "Server" the "Port to" (8080) you want to forward the "Protocol" (UPD or TCP or both) the local IP adress (in your case 192.168.1.101) and again the Port you want to get forwarded (8080). Mark the checkbox at enabled and every request from the internet is forwarded to the IP adress 192.168.1.101.
Thats it !
