I took dreambox to my pals home it worked took it to another friends house the c line connected.. took it back to this guys netgear router nothing...
id have stayed to mess about with router but time got on an been a long day but going back tomorrow to have look his netgear router so unable to even state version or model just yet...

Im so sure couple year ago i had to tick Nat setting on this netgear router but id be gratful if anyone could tell me what wouldcause this to happen ...ruling out obvious things like network setting been right for his router in dreambox menu .. all correct .. id be correct in thinkin there is no fort forward issue as he just conecting to my sever not running 1

If he installed Norton Internet Security then I suspect the firewall will be blocking the port or the port will require opening within NIS

Thread closed - its bordering on dodgy ground.

If you are card sharing Sky UK we dont want to know about it, and explicit help could get us closed down by any of the pay tv providers if their security goons think we are helping anyone paying a legit subscription
