Hi
I ended up buying a piece of port forwarding software. It did the
trick, and was pretty much stress free.
Interestingly, I spend more time on this list than I do on air, or on
echo link.
God bless,
Mark
God Loves you!

You don't. You log into your router or internet modem if it has built-in
firewall, and open up the appropriate ports.

Hi all,
Well, here's where we are in getting me on echo link.
Were not!
First, for the 3rd time, my friend, Rick, wo8m, scanned and faxed my =
license to the folks at echo link.
It said my license is unreadable, so, no validation!
Then, a firewall test failure!
Here's what the test said.
"Windows XP Service Pack 3
Local IP address: 192.168.1.78
Firewall Test Results: FAIL
The test successfully connected to the EchoLink server on TCP port 5200. =
This means that your system's TCP configuration is correct for use with =
EchoLink.
The tester did not receive a response for some of the UDP tests. If you =
have a router or firewall installed, be sure its Port Forwarding feature =
is correctly set. (See Help for details.)"
Trippy's comment, where in the heck do I go on the echolink web site? =
I'll try to find the help, but who knows!
Now, back to the results.
"If you have Internet security software installed, be sure it is =
configured to allow EchoLink to access the Internet.
There appears to be a router between this computer and the Internet. A =
router normally requires special configuration for use with EchoLink."
Folks, that's a crock of crap. Folks, I have no router, just a dsl =
modem, what are they drinking?
For more information, click the Help button above, or see the Firewall =
Solutions page on the EchoLink Web site.
What a disaster this is.
Trippy, ac8s
