-Comcast Cable
-Linksys 4port router
-FFXI for PS2
I've just switched from Dial-up to cable internet and I'm having problems with FFXI for PS2. The biggest problem is using the search function. When I'm checking the auction house, looking for players, searching an area, or checking my link list, the search will fail. This doesn't happen everytime, but enough to really get on your nerves. I have also been timed out from the server everyday since I switched to cable. After being kicked I have to reset my router before I am able to log back on. Dial-up is still working fine though. After speaking with others, it seems that no one else is having this same problem. So with that said, I'm thinking it might be my router, although I'm not having problems with my PCs. I read this, "Make sure the following ports are open on your router/firewall:
-TCP 25, 80, 110, 443 or 50000 - 65535
-UDP 50000 - 65535" and I am unsure how to check and or change this. I use the Linksys router and am at the web client right now to change my settings, but I don't know where to change those specific settings. So if anyone uses the same router or knows how to do this, any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
edit.
These are the settings I have right now.
Application_Ext.Port_TCP__UDP
FTP________21_____x
Telnet______23_____x
SMTP_______25_____x
DNS________53__________x
TFTP________69__________x
finger_______79_____x
HTTP________80_____x
POP3_______110____x
NNTP_______119____x
SNMP_______161_________x
That's in the uPnP Forwarding section. None are enabled so should I do that?
