Problem with speedtouch pro

[Torajirou]

Hi

Here's my config

Active-only FTP Server (port 20) <-- INTERNET --> Alcatel SpeedTouch Pro (10.0.0.138) <----> My PC (10.0.0.150)

I can't get no LIST from the server...

I thought I had to create a NAT rule for port 20 on my modem, but it doesn't seem to work

anyone has an idea ? I'm here for any additional info about my configuration ;)

you created NAT rule so internet can connect to you on port 20. this is not what you want :).
what you want is go to options, Proxy/Firewall/Ident tab, and enable "Limit Local port range to:", set some port range(must be above 1025)
then create NAT rule for that port range.

yep, I tried that as well...

actually, with a Speedtouch Pro, you cannot specify ranges of ports... only one port at a time...

so I thought :

1. Limit port range : 1024 - 1024 (so I force it on port 1024 ;))
2. Bind sockets to IP : my external address
3. create a NAT rule : tcp - in_addr : 10.0.0.150:1024 - out_addr : 0.0.0.0:20

unfortunately it didn't work...

gonna try with 1025... maybe that's the problem, hope it is anyway ;)

so you think these 3 steps are good ? is it the right NAT rule or am I mixing it up ? ^^

thx

just 1 port is not enough.
it's best to forward at least 10 ports.

i don't think "out_addr : 0.0.0.0:20" is a valid entry to pub.
you'll probably need to consult documentation for your router for exact steps of how to properly configure port forwarding.
