My company has a small mac network running, with a file server running FMP 5 server and connected to the outside via 1.2mb dsl. Recently we just switched our gateway machine (a 7200 running ipNetrouter) with a MIH-130pro XRouter by Macsense. When we had the software gateway set up we had no problems getting to the filemaker server from the outside (port 5003), but since we've put this hardware router in, even when I open all ports to the server, it connects extremely randomly, and the only time it connects (if at all) is immediately after I reset the router. I was wondering if anyone had heard of a problem w/ this router and FMP 5 server or if anyone has any suggestions.

thanks : ]

I have a similar setup. I connected the cable modem to ethernet hub (uplink), XRouter and G4 server to downlink ports on the ethernet hub. Hard IP's on both XRouter and server. Make sure you're using TCP/IP for the network.
