How to port forward on Netopia 3347WE - Netopia Computers & Internet

try this website out they have just about every router out there listed Port forwarding the Netopia 2247NWG VGx router

GO TO THIS LINK

Go to this web site and follow the instructions.
These instructions are specifically for your router and a host of different apps you can forward the ports for

Server List (Port Forwarding) NQG_025 With NAT enabled, the IP addresses of nodes on your LAN are private since they are hidden from the Internet. IP Servers let you pass specific types of network traffic through the Netopia router's NAT interfaces. Once configured, selected types of network traffic, such as FTP requests or HTTP (Web) connections, will be forwarded to a specific host or server behind the Netopia router. Please Note: From the LAN (Local Area Network), you will also be able to access the servers that are responding to requests from the internet, but only using the internal private IP address. Access via the public IP address is not supported from a local ethernet connection. If your ISP is routing you multiple public IP addresses, you can also configure the router to forward all ports in one public IP to a designated private IP address on your LAN via Easy PAT List entries. For those instructions, see Quick Guide NQG_024: IP Mapping (Address Forwarding).
Please Note: If your router is currently running Netopia Residential Firmware with a web "GUI" configuration menu, this technote is not applicable to you. Most 3300 Series Netopia Gateways can be upgraded to Enterprise level firmware. Click Here! to purchase the upgrade key.

• v4.8.2 (and up) - R-Series

Before You Start
Telnet into the Netopia router's Main Menu at 192.168.1.1 (if using the default IP setting). If your network has a different IP addressing scheme, modify this accordingly. Click Here! for instructions on using telnet and Hyperterminal (serial connection).
Login with the user name and password. The Superuser login is required to save changes. If you are unsure of this, contact your network administrator.
Don't forget to press the Enter key to save any entries. Hitting the back space, delete or tab without first hitting enter will undo any changes.
The Esc key will take you back towards the main menu screen.
Once you have completed your configuration, you should reboot the Netopia to save and apply your changes.

Server List Configuration

1. From the Main Menu of router console screens, go to Quick Menus, and select Network Address Translation.
2. Select Show/Change Server List.
3. Select Easy-Servers.
4. From the Show/Change NAT Server List screen, select Add Server.
5. Select Service and the service and port you want to allow. If your service and port are not available in the pull-down menu, select Other. Selecting Other will allow you to enter a specific service port or a range of ports since fields are provided for both a First Port Number and a Last Port Number. To allow a specific service port, the First Port Number and Last Port Number should be the same. Select Okay.
6. Next, enter the Server Private IP Address, or the private IP address of the host/server you are forwarding the service to, and the Public IP Address you want to associate with the same host/server. This value can be left set to 0.0.0.0 if you are using the WAN IP as the Public IP address. Note: If your ISP is routing you multiple static IP addresses, other then the one used for Internet access, you may create more than one server for specific service as long as all servers have a different Public IP Address specified. For example, with two web servers on your LAN you would need to create two Server List entries for TCP 80 (www-http). Since each specific port (service) can only be mapped once using any given Public IP Address, a distinct public address must be used for each TCP 80 server list entry. It is not necessary for you to specify more than one Local WAN IP Address or Public IP Address in your router's configuration. As long as you are connecting to your ISP via a public IP address used for NAT, they are responsible for routing all other IP addresses via that connection.
   

Conclusion
You have now configured your router for TCP/UDP port forwarding. If you have a switched connection (ISDN or Analog), you will need to either disconnect and reconnect your Internet connection, or restart your router for the Nat Server List changes to take effect. If you wish to filter traffic for your static IP mappings, please see the following Netopia Technote:
NQG_039: NAT and the Basic Firewall

I know that most Netopia's I've worked with have been able to port forward single or ranges of ports to numerous internals from numerous externals.

Address Translation needs to be on.
IP Passthrough has to be off.
Then in NAT Easy Servers, setup port forwards and specify the external IP, internal IP, and ports (can forward all).

if you can, enable PNP on the router . It will then discover devices that require ports opened and do it automatically.

are you in ireland and with eircom?

Well I'm no expert on routers, but I've never heard of Netopia. If you can, try Linksys routers, they're so easy to use and they have the best customer service. I have a Linksys WRT-54GL Wireless Router linked up to a Wireless-G PCI adapter. I wont lie to you, Linksys is very easy to use, and you can see any activity on your network straight from your computer. I got my setup for less than $50.00, but I don't know if they got cheaper or not. They're blazing fast too, they can transfer data up to 54Mbps or higher, I've never used anything quite as simple as a Linksys router, I did have and old Aris router, but it was too difficult to use, so that's when I bought the Linksys. You won't be disappointed!

Hope this helps some!

Actually the application may be games or any other software which it setted port is not open/accessable through your router and it will work by default ports and the speed or the performance is very slow- Try to configure proper port forwarding according to the application port settings check those ports are open after configuration
