I've searched everywhere on this site for the answers to my port forwarding issue and can't find any help. Heres my situation:
I have an iMac with a Bell 2701HG-G Wireless modem/router. I have the modem set up to allow port 1412 to open with the iMac, but when I test it or try to run Shakespeer (p2p software), it does not see the port. Shakespeer is also set to receive the port - I am quite familiar with port forwarding and have had success with PC's - but this Mac is new and I can't for the life of me figure out why it won't work? What am I missing?
Is their some sort of firewall issue on the iMac end I need to clear up. I've used online port forward testers and they fail to see the open port even though the modem says it is open and active.
I hope someone out there can help me?
