Port Forwarding a DI-624

Sorry if this is the wrong section, I have asked in many places on the internet, and not gotton any responses, so maybe you gurus would know!

Okay, I am trying to set up port forwarding on a D-Link DI-624 router for several applications (servers, w3, slsk, aim file sharing), but nothing seems to be working. I have been trying to get this to work for so so long. Some stats:

Static IP: 192.168.0.150

I think ipconfig confirms this

Windows IP Configuration

Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:

Media State . . . . . . . . . . . : Media disconnected

Ethernet adapter Wireless Network Connection 2:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.150
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.1

Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.0.1 (Router)

I was also advised by my ISP, comcast, to have preferred DNS addresses (would never resolve the DNS first time, links had to be clicked twice, now fixed)

Preferred DNS: 205.171.3.65
Secondary DNS: 205.171.2.65

Now some things I have on my router.

Home => DHCP has all the IP's in the DHCP client list. My entry is at the top, and is FAMILY 192.168.0.150 too. Here, for example, are some entries for warcraft 3.

Advanced => Virtual Servers

Name: warcraft3
Private IP: 192.168.0.150
Protocol: IP(0) 6112/6112
Schedule: Always

Advanced => Firewall

Action Name: Allow warcraft3
Source: WAN, *
Destination: LAN, 192.168.0.150
Protocol: IP (0), 6112

And for AIM

Advanced => Virtual Servers

Name: aim
Private IP: 192.168.0.150
Protocol: IP(0) 5195/5195
Schedule: Always

Advanced => Firewall

Action Name: Allow aim
Source: WAN, *
Destination: LAN, 192.168.0.150
Protocol: IP (0), 5195

I have also added entries in the Applications column, but this was not instructed in any manuals. I have followed several of these.

And probably a few more misc tidbits of info that have come off the internet, and equivalent ones for aim, slsk, apache. Any help is very appreciated!

If you can enable UPnP (on both your OS and on the router), then you might be able to use the utility described in this article: "Using UPnP for Programmatic Port Forwardings and NAT Traversal" at http://www.codeproject.com/internet/PortForward.asp

However, some have reported difficulties using Dlink routers, at least for the DL-524.

Many port problems are caused by firewalls, particularly any form of Norton Security. Please disable all firewalls until you have the port-forwarding working, and then slowly add them back.
