    Hi I have web server running on a Linux box and want to access from the web. I have a DynDns account and a Ercom netopia wireless router , I followed the instruction on
    http://www.netopia.com/support/intl/eircom/technotes/IEQG_025.html on hwo to give a computer on a network the IP address of you router. But when I ping the DnyDNS site I get nothing? Where have I gone wrong ?

    i have my laptop set as a http server when testing web stuff. To get it accessible on the internet i added the service "HTTP" on the NAT page(Advanced> Configure>Advanced>NAT) in the router. (an eircom one) and that worked.
