EtherFast Cable/DSL Routers
How do I get Napster to work with the Router? Napster is fully compatible
with the Router and requires no special settings.
I setup 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. If you want to use the UT Server Admin, forward another port (8080
usually works well), 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 simultaneous-
ly with just one public IP address? It depends on the 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" 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 of the server computer.
There remains, however, a problem with people being booted after a few
minutes with an "illegible server message."
How can I not receive corrupted FTP downloads? If you are experiencing cor-
rupted files when you download a file with your FTP client, try using
another FTP program.
Web page hangs, corrupt downloads, or nothing but junk characters are being
displayed on the screen. What do I need to do? Force your NIC to 10Mbps
or half duplex mode, and turn off the "Autonegotiate" feature of your NIC
as a temporary measure. (Please look at the Network Control Panel, in your
Ethernet Adapter's Advanced Properties tab.). Check our website at
www.linksys.com for more information.
