Attempting to set up a game server, encountering issues with port forwarding.
Attempting to set up a game server, encountering issues with port forwarding.
Hello all you wanderfull people. So first let me explain the setup. A fiber cable comes through the wall and connects to what i guess is a modem. Then a cable is run from this modem to a (unmaneged) switch, my pc is connected to this switch. Then for wifi a cable is run from the switch to the router. Now, since my pc isnt connected to a Router theres no control panel to port forward in. I have tried connecting my PC to the router but no luck. So tell me, what do i need to do? i was thinking of connecting the modem directly to the modem and the connecting the switch to the router. Would this work?
I believe it's the same device as the modem, functioning as a dual-purpose unit. Check your gateway in the network settings—this should be the router's IP address.
That’s different—I have two separate boxes: a router and a modem. It shows "residential gateway" on the modem, but nothing appears when I connect my PC directly to the router or use the default gateway address. It looks like TRP01-B, but no results found online.
Attempted to link the PC straight to the modem without using a web interface—no configuration options available. It appears the device isn’t functioning properly. I’ve connected the modem to the router and then to the switch; perhaps the switch is interfering with the connection.
