Hey everyone,
I've got a problem with my Airport Extreme. Behind my airport extreme are a few devices that need some special configuration. An xbox 360 that needs an 'Open NAT' for gaming, and a Mac Mini server (usenet/torrent + media center) that needs a few ports forwarded for web interfaces.
The xbox 360 has to be set as default server for the NAT, if it isn't (and even if I forward the ports it needs and enable UPnP), it complains about a moderate or strict NAT. So the ideal thing here is to set the xbox 360 as default server.
In my understanding, a default server is where all ports are redirected to, standard. But I need a few ports (like 8081, to be redirected to my mac mini).
I assumed when setting up the 360 as a default server, and adding the port forwarding rules, I would be able to access the web interfaces from a remote location. But that's not possible. It's as if the default server overrides any specific port-forwarding rules. Is that correct?
If so, how could I solve this problem? The web interfaces are always accessed through a certain domain name. Could I route any requests through that domain name to the mini or something?
Thanks in advance for your time.
Regards,
Jan
