Linksys Routers and ICUII
The information below will assist you in setting one or more computer on iCu2 with a Linksys Router (this is for the Linksys WRT54g Wireless Cable/ADSL router , but should work on all Linksys Routers)..
*Always make sure you have the latest firmware installed on your Router before proceeding (unless otherwise stated). Check your Router manufacturer's Support Area on their website to obtain the newest firmware.
If you have only 1 computer to setup, or if this is the first computer you are setting up for iCu2:
On iCu2:
1: Go into Tools - Options - Ports
2: Make sure you are set to "Network" connection
3: In Normal Ports and Network Ports areas make sure you have:
Primary Port: TCP 2000
Secondary Port: TCP 2001
ie:
|
4: Also, take note of your IP Address. It most likely will not be the same as the one above. You have to take note of the IP address you see in your iCu2 window.
5:Click on OK and close iCu2
On the Linksys:
1: Log into the Linksys admin area (on internet explorer type in 192.168.1.1 and hit enter or go)
2: Type in your username/password for the Linksys (if you haven't set a user/pass - it should be admin )
3: Go into the Applications and Games area, then Port Forwarding area.
4: Make an entry that looks similar to this for iCu2-1:
| App: | Start: | End: | Protocol: | IP Address: | Enable: |
| iCu2-1 | 2000 | 2001 | Both (TCP/UDP) | (IP you took note of) | ticked/checked |
5: Click on Save Changes
6: Try iCu2
If you want to add a second computer / iCu2 to your home network, make sure you have setup the first computer as detailed above, then do this to add the second computer:
On the second computer's iCu2:
1: Go into Tools - Options - Ports
2: Make sure you are set to "Network" connection
3: In Normal Ports and Network Ports areas make sure you have:
Primary Port: TCP 2002
Secondary Port: TCP 2003
ie:
|
4: Also, take note of your IP Address. It most likely will not be the same as the one above. You have to take note of the IP address you see in your iCu2 window.
5:Click on OK and close iCu2
On the Linksys:
1: Log into the Linksys admin area (on internet explorer type in 192.168.1.1 and hit enter or go)
2: Type in your username/password for the Linksys (if you haven't set a user/pass - it should be admin/admin )
3: Go into the Applications and Games area, then Port Forwarding area.
4: Make an entry for iCu2-2 with the information you collected so that your Port Forwarding Area now looks looks similar to this:
| App: | Start: | End: | Protocol: | IP Address: | Enable: |
| iCu2-1 | 2000 | 2001 | Both (TCP/UDP) | (IP you took note of for 1st computer) | ticked/checked |
| iCu2-2 | 2002 | 2003 | Both (TCP/UDP) | (IP you took note of for 2nd computer) | ticked/checked |
5: Click on Save Changes
6: Try iCu2
If you want to add more computers / iCu2s to your home network, it is simply a case of following the steps again for the second computer and changing the settings so that each computer/iCu2 has it's own unique values. Ie, computer 3 would have:
Primary Port: 2004
Secondary Port: 2005
being forwarded to the local IP address of that computer.
