Re: Mac- Stealth connection

olddude, we have a problem.

you are correct.
the Apple Airport Extreme only allows port-to-port mapping.
that is why you see configs trying to open 10 ports, one by one. (20 port max).
you can only have a total of 20 individual ports open (not good for torrents)

the only way around it (that I've read) is to put your workstation in the DMZ (outside the firewall) using the Airport Admin Utility. this is bad idea.

No offence, but I would dump that wireless router first chance I get..
If anyone else has an idea.. help.

i read this recent thread from mac users & its grim all over.
