What's embarrassing is I noticed the typo when re-doing ports after my BeBox packed a mental. I could have sworn I updated it and left a comment to the fact. Guess I'm imagining things! For what it's worth, I'm now using my BeBox purely as a glorified modem in bridge mode in front of a Linksys WRT54GL running the Tomato firmware. Stability is much improved. Cheers! Jeroen, you are absolutely right.

I wrote about Be because it's what I know, although like I say the changes should work across all SpeedTouches of the same or similar model. I think the BT Home Hub is similar, although I could be wrong. Certainly I've heard of BT users having problems. In general, forwarding the ports mentioned should fix the problem! Hi Neil

I actually had to re-set up my router recently (I tried to add a forward rule and it spawned infinite rules, making the unit - which is flaky at the best of times - crash into a sobbing heap on the floor), and where did I look for which ports to forward...? If you really want to read more, I'm now posting from Barcelona, where I intend to learn Spanish. It's by far the scariest thing I've done! @Network Device Guy

If you're with Be and you have a BeBox, go to <a href="http://192.168.1.254">http://192.168.1.254</a>, then "Toolbox", and "Game and Application Sharing", and go from there. Jack:

What router are you using?

If you’re with Be and you have a BeBox, go to http://192.168.1.254, then “Toolbox”, and “Game and Application Sharing”, and go from there.
