Use a different port for each machine behind the router.
This isn't a limitation of the router. It's basic TCP you are up against.
It's the shortage of IPv4 address that he's up against, causing people to share 1 IP address among multiple devices. With IPv6, every device can have at least one globally unique address. With my ISP, I have a /64 prefix, which provides 2^64 or 18.4 billion, billion addresses available for me. Every IPv6 capable device I have can be reached without messing around with different port numbers. That nonsense is caused by that hack called NAT, that's necessitated by the address shortage. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
