I am treying to get echolink to work through my network. I have a
belkin fsd7230-4 router and a speedstream 5200 modem router. I tried
direct connect through the modem setting up port forwarding and it did
work, through the router though is a nother story. Any ideas? Port
forwarding in the belkin has been set up.


For what its worth, I had a similar situation a few years ago, although
with different equipment... my Actiontec DSL modem/router was feeding my
Linksys wireless router. Never could get Echolink to work properly through
all that. I ended up putting my modem/router into dumb " bridging " mode,
with no routing action activated in it. At that point the Port Forwarding
in my Linksys Router worked well and Echolink functioned properly.

Tom,
Thanks for the tip. I put in my routers IP address and it says not a
valid NAPT address. Can I disable the NAT/NAPT feature and still be
ok. I have firewall and encryption on the router.
