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.

Just a suggestion, have your speedstream 5200 forward ALL of it's ports
to your Belkin. There might be a 'DMZ' setting in the Speedstream
configuration. I use the same model Belkin router along with another
router that splits off my digital phone system ports from all the rest.
The DMZ setting works for me.

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.
