Title: DIR-615 K1 Port Forwarding issue?
Post by: T-N-Z on March 24, 2013, 05:40:19 AM: Hello, I have a weird issue with my DIR-615 K1 router.

I am trying to host a small private gaming server to do some testing there. It's a modification called SA-MP (San Andreas Multiplayer).

So basicly I am trying to host a server on port 7777.
Here's a screenshot of my virtual server settings:

I've done this many times before on other routers, and usually it worked. But on this router it's something different.
Basicly, everyone can tell that server is online, but when someone tries to connect to it, they can't. We just get "Server is not responding" messege.
Not even I can connect to it from same PC. ( It works with 127.0.0.1 but it's localhost )

So long story short:
Server is online, ports are forwarded, but nobody can connect to it.

I am running latest FW on this router.
Can it be Windows issue? I tried to disable firewall but it didin't help.
Any ideas? Thank you.

2.What kind of modem do you have? On it somewhere should be a modem number. Usually by the bar code on a sticker.

3. Who is the ISP?

4. As for the UI, I have no experience with that type. Thats the European interface and I don't think that have any emulators for it. Looks about right. I assume the * are to dictate the required fields? Why are you using a virtual server if your public and private ports are the same? Why not port forwarding?

Well there's only "Virtual Server" feature, there's no Port Forwarding
