Hello Everyone
I just bought my new DIR 655 and love it..Much better range but and there is always a but..
Under the remote admin part of the router under tools. I go to the bottom of the page and enable remote admin with port 8080 assigned with allow all.
I have setup my free DDNS acct with dlinkddns.com The Funny thing is i can ping my computer from a windows cmd prompt but when i enable wan ping inside the router i am unable to ping my ddns.com from an explorer or FF.
Could someone please help me --do i need to open a port? tried to connect and all i get is NEtwork Timed out. -check out the photo below...

Just to help anyone in the future...

It will of you disable the SPI and change the NAT ENPOINT FILTERS to ENDPOINT INDEPENEDENT.

What are you hosting?
-
I would Like to setup a server so i dont have to PAY for services anymore from go-daddy. I have a small business in Professional Home Inspections in which i operate and run. I thought I could set up a server and not have to rely on go-daddy anymore for services.
BUT --I would really like to get this setup on a NAS on the other side of the Router. Which would always be on. Looking at the Apache server SW.
What do you think?
Oh and BTW Lycan--do you work for D-link? If so Thank you for all your help...
The only thing i have found with d-link and which i really didn't like was the Customer service i got when i called into D-link. I usually found the other person had half broken english and I could tell she didnt know her head from a hole in the ground. and thats putting it nicely.
Otherwise D-link Products are fantastic as long as you don't have to call CS.
Like I said Lycan you have been a great resource and help and I do appreciate it.
