Hi
I am having trouble configuring the advanced firewall on my Zoom X6 ADSL2+ router, and I wondered if there is anyone out there that has this feature configured?

I have configured an apache webserver on a fedora 10 machine and wanted to make it as secure as i could hence the reason I am trying to get it to work.

This is how i think the policies were configured, however I think there are ports or maybe a trigger rule missing, I cant view a website when i open a browser.

External - internal rules;
TCP - 0 - 65535 out - allow
UDP - 0 - 65535 deny
TCP - 25 both - allow
TCP - 110 both - allow
TCP - 80 out - allow
TCP - 443 out - allow
TCP - 1052 out - allow (DO I NEED THIS)
TCP - 1080 out - allow (DO I NEED THIS)
TCP - 1153 out - allow (DO I NEED THIS)
TCP - 1755 out - allow (DO I NEED THIS)
I think they had more ports than i have here ?


External - DMZ rules are as follows;
TCP - 25 - both - allow
TCP - 110 - both - allow
TCP - 80 - out - allow
TCP - 53 - out - allow
I dont have a good memory of what they had in here at all ?

DMZ - internal rules are as follows;
TCP - 25 - both - allow
TCP - 110 - both - allow
TCP - 80 - out - allow
TCP - 53 out -allow
Again not sure of what they had here?

Finally the port trigger settings are as follows;
I have set ports 80, 53, 1755 to act as udp triggers duration of 10 and translation port type TCP the rest of the settings i have left as default !!

When i enable the advanced firewall with these settings I am unable to get a web page to connect to a site. yet the network & sharing centre on (networked wireless laptop) vista shows clearly that it is connected to the internet as does the router indication of "showtime".
Which must mean my settings aren't quite there!

Any help and guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards
