can I get some help setting up my router please?

http://www.cisco.com/web/consumer/su...m_DPC3825.html

there's like two firewalls both with over 9000 settings, but all the security features are off by default please hlep before flag gets me this is 2advanced4me


I can't find out how to check for firmware updates or even see what firmware version I have


so far I have changed the admin name/pass and the wireless name/pass and turned on unpnp

I've tried googling this shit but all I can find is nerds talking about this shit like I already know what it all is

this router has this big elaborate setup for parentel controls where I think you have to manually type in every porn site ever made and type in all the bad words my other router just had a simple three choices block phishing sites, block phishing sites and like somethigjn else, then block all that and porn it was very simple

um if you are paranoid about being hacked it's prb not best to post your router model number lmao

this new one has port filtering, port range forwarding, and port range triggering, what one am I supposed to fill out for second life oh my g-d

does second life use a special port, i think it just goes over 80 like everything else

I never actually had to forward ports for it I don't plan on forwarding any ports fuck games that can't just unpnp :twisted:

I found the firmware I guess my isp controls it that sucks

check all the filters

check all the filters and you will be fine

do I need to change the spi firewall thing to low/med/high or can that stay off I can't tell if that is part of the checkbox thing

i bet that low med high thing just set's the filters for you

ok I just clicked low medium and high and yeah in the allowed services box shit shows up, the thing is though low still says no ports restricted, and medium has GAME stuff in it and high doesn't


should I just keep it in high and if everything still works then good but if things don't work switch ot to medium then low?

in high I can unfortunately still make posts at rubynet

can't connect to steam I will try medium

medium didn't work either, low does, but I don't know if low is actually protecting me from flaggerchats

I would always get STRITCT NAT problems with warframe with my other things let me see if that still happens now

i would scan your ports first stevey, then i would proceed from there, don't think flaggerchat can do all that but idk

if its on da net...............................

GOD DAMMIT


textures in second life are doing the same thing like my other router, a bunch don't load all the way and stay blurry

I set it from low to off and without even having to restart the game everything is now loading perfect

what is it with router firewalls not liking me

if anyone hacked my computer they'd find them self in one of the emptiest computers in the world and eventually make their way to the emptiest bank account in the world so I'm not worried I have a clean install of windows 8 with second life and a few steam games

gonna see if warframe still gives me strict nat bullshit with this crisco with the firewall off, warframe supports unpnp let's see if this thing actually does unpnp right

every time I start warframe there's a 500-1000+mb patch but I don't ever see anything change lol

~ 3MB/s hurry up fuck you
