ckyuv Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Ok so recently I got a netgear wireless adapter (wnce2001) for my apex so I could control it from my phone. I linked it to my netgear wireless router (wnr2000) and can connect to it and can control it from my phone when I'm on my wifi only. I have gone through the port forwarding process on the netgear router set up and have forwarded the apex port and ip but I still can not access my dang apex off the wifi. Any ideas? I have time warner internet and an apex light and would like to make the apex app for iPhone work if that makes any difference. Thanks in advance for any help.

Juiceman Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 You have to go through your outside network IP address. Go to whatismyipaddress.com and then put that in with your port number after a : Ex 72.112.43.5:80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juiceman Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 The 192.168 etc only works in network Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jestep Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Pull up a web browser and search google for "my ip". This is your external ip address. It may change occasionally unless you pay for a dedicated ip address though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckyuv Posted January 9, 2014 Author Share Posted January 9, 2014 Sorry I forgot to mention I try using that. When I go to whatsmy ip it shows 24.28.78.137 but I still can not access it through that ip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoly Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 can you take a screenshot of your internet preferences tab on your apex, and then another of your routers port forwarding page? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esacjack Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 did you disable wireless client separation on the netgear? Also, be sure stateful packet inspection (and firewall) is disabled on the repeater/adapter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckyuv Posted January 9, 2014 Author Share Posted January 9, 2014 I will take a screen shot of both when I get home and post them. I will see if I can find wireless client seperation on the router but I'm not sure how I would go about looking at/changing settings on the adapter. I only have an iPhone, android tablet and smart phone to do all my settings from lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esacjack Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 both are managed via their web interface. Stateful packet inspection is a known packet killer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckyuv Posted January 9, 2014 Author Share Posted January 9, 2014 And am I supposed to disable wireless client seperation or just make sure it's not disabled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jestep Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Shoot that looks fine to me. There's a slew of forum discussion on port forwarding not working on this model. Search for "wnr2000 port forwarding not working" on google. I can definitely ping your public IP address so either your router or Apex is responding. But I cannot connect to port 80. Get a Error 110: Connection timed out when trying to connect to 80. I wonder if your modem is blocking port 80 so it's not even hitting your router or Apex.

I'm going to be sure to stay on your good side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esacjack Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 So you have your own router, and your own wireless access point... do you have the providers equipment as well? And if so, what is the cable modem/router type they installed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esacjack Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Also, lets see the interface for your repeater, and for your ISP router... chances are you're up against the difference between gateway and router mode. In gateway mode, the data is passed from the internet, through your cable modem, into a dedicated home router. In router mode, the modem acts as a security device, content filter, router, and switch. If your ISP's router is setup in 'router mode' you'll have a lot of problems passing traffic without a static route or putting your home router in the dmz. Also, you've verified the IP addresses you're using, correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckyuv Posted January 10, 2014 Author Share Posted January 10, 2014 That is the Same message I get jestep. When I google it your right it looks like there is quite a few other problems. Esacjack, I have the cable coming in through a modem provided by time warner, it is an Aaris model dg860 modem. From there it's plugged into my netgear router and nothing else. I also apoligize but I was not able to find my statefull packet inspections or firewall settings earlier. Also you ask for my interface for my netgear and time warner routers, not to sure what your needing or where to look lol. I'll post a screenshot of the whats my ip thing but someone pls let me know if I'm posting to much information that someone could use against me! I read that some internet providers block certain ports so just for the sake of it I tried multiple ones and none worked so I'm back at 80 again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
