Well I think I may have just found the solution to my portforwarding problems
I've read somewhere that the Motorola surfboard modems actually dont allow the ports to be forwarded.

Code:
Once you've found the IP address, if it starts with    192.168.100.xxx   then you should suspect that your Surfboard has been modified by your ISP to block the ports you need.


If the IP address is anything else, the modem should be OK.




So- what to do if you found a  192.168.100.xxx  address...?


If you call your ISP they'll most likely tell you they're not blocking any ports.    That's "true", as far as it goes because it's not the ISP that's blocking them, it's the modem.

[b]Ask them to reconfigure your modem to turn off the DHCP Server.[/b]   They'll probably tell you they don't know what you're talking about. (That's probably "true" too. The people on the phone probably have no idea.)

Your only recourse if you have one of the modems that has been reprogrammed this way may be to buy a different type of cable modem, one which can't be remotely configured to do this.




Im not sure if anyone of you have any information on this... but my IP doesnt seem to be that 192.168.100.x
its more like this 192.168.1.x

Anyone know anything ?

I know my Surfboard modem doesn't disallow port forwarding.
ISP is located for New York/New Jersey.
