Hmmm. DMZ and Virtual server work fine on my unit. I have got a VoIP box (in my LAN) defined as a Virtual server (port 5060) and I am able to receive inbound calls. Keep in mind, you need to define the web server IP# as a LAN client and then use that definition on the Virtual Server page (start port 80 end port 80 TCP).
Dude, he has the router configuration webserver running on port 80 and hes running the /real/ webserver behind it. So all the requests are being intercepted by the router's webserver when they should've been forwarded to the internal webserver i.e. his PC.
I understood what the OP was saying. I was trying to suggest alternatives with examples of what worked for me (VoIP virtual server, DMZ) but ... read on.
I have changed the subject line to reflect config problems with DLink that I encountered while trying to do some setup of my own. My modem has FW v2.0 from May/2005.
Problems: 1. Save and Reboot does not reboot the modem when invoked from Firefox 1.5.0.2 (or earlier versions) or Konqueror but does so when invoked from IE on WinXP :( 2. Even though, remote Web and Telnet management over Wan port is _disabled_ port 23 and 80 appear *open* on the WAN side and I was able to login on both ports! Fortunately, I have a non default password for the box. 3. After tinkering (Virtual server, Filter Rules) with port forwarding for a webserver, my Virtual Server Rule for VoIP (5060) appears closed on the WAN port even though it is listed active in the Virtual Server rule set.
The box was working OK until I activated the "Web Server" Virtual server rule to a LAN IP. I also changed the "admin" webserver to port 8080 but that did not help either. IMO, I don't think the DLink QA team tested some of the basic functionalities and their interaction. Will see if their tech support is of any help otherwise it is time to hit the reset button at the back of the unit :((
