OK - i have IWP turned on, specified port 591. So when I go to 192.168.1.9:591 everything works fine. I disabled my software firewall (for testing purposes) and I forwarded port 591 to the 192.168.1.9 machine (I did that for TCP and UDP), but when i go to my static IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:591, I still get a 'broken link' (my static IP pings fine). I also tried forwarding port 80 to port 591 on said machine - also to no avail.

Am I overlooking something? Any tips on how to further trouble shoot?

BTW - I spent all that time to have a nice looking three dimensional layouts only to see my 'shaded areas' to be turned into white bars - anything that can be done to 'force' FM to make it look 'purdy' in IWP as well, or am I better off designing a set of IWP layouts?

Thanks

Did you apply the port forward on your internet router? It's not clear from what you wrote.

Also, see the Web Publishing guide docs that come with FMP (in the electronic docs folder), there's a whole set of rules and caveats to be aware of for IWP.

yes, on my router - sorry for not making that clear. I have port 591 forwarded to 192.168.1.9 on my 2wire router.

I went through the IWP documentation, but could not find anything that I could pinpoint my issue to, since it is all working fine on my localhost.

Hi, any luck with this issue.

I am experiencing the same thing... I have Global IP on my router, have configured Port Forwarding on 591, but can't access my IWP files from outside the firewall.

If I take the firewall away, it works like a charm. Must a setting I have missed, but no idea. Am waiting for a Netgear support ticket to be answered, but would like to solve this issue asap.

Any suggestions appreciated
