I use Serve-U v.4 behind a Linksys router. I like to use a non standard port when serving: assume 26500, for sake of argument. In this case I would forward a range of ports in the router, say 26500-26700. In testing the setup through another ISP, the connection is registered in the Serve-U activity page, but times out on the client end because "the server didn't respond". I've tried extending the number of ports in that range, nada.

If I set DMZ on the router (forwarding all ports) it works fine--and that's what I usually end up doing for my pals on BetaONE. I've got the ftp server software configured correctly and believe the problem lies in not getting the right ports forwarded in the router.

What other range or ranges of ports need to be forwarded when using non-standard ports for serving? Ideas?
