Hi, I have a wireless router, which I want to turn the NAT off
But the problem is, the router doesnt show the NAT settings under the system tab. The javascript code for it is commented out, but I dont know exactly why?
Is there any other ways at all to turn it off?

Hi Adam!

Now, as a full member you should know, that we need more information that that.

First of all, which belkin wireless router is it? Give us a product number or something like that.

Then where is the javascript code commented out (I'm guessing there's some kind of web interface - please describe, where you go in there)? And what exactly should that code do?

Also, do you have a user manual and if so, have you checked that? If not, have you tried finding one online?

Sorry, the details...
Its a belkin N wireless modem router.
Firmware Version: 1.00.01 (Aug 2 2007 )
Boot Version: V0.05
Hardware: F5D8633-4 v1 (01)


The javascript is in the system settings:
this comes under the Init_Value() function:

//	var nat_enabled = f.nat_enabled.value;

Then theres this:

// 	if( nat_enabled == '1') 
//		f.Nat_enable[0].checked=true;
//	else
//		f.Nat_enable[1].checked=true;

this:

//	if (f.Nat_enable[1].checked==true)
//		cur_ipaddr = '192.168.2.254';

this:

//	if (f.Nat_enable[0].checked==true) 
//		f.nat_enabled.value = '1';
// 	else 
//		f.nat_enabled.value = '0';

And this:

Im just installing a PDF reader at the moment, for the manual.

[Adam01]

Ok, The manual mentioned no troubleshooting on no NAT option.
It only mentioned nat in the general system settings information.
Not even belking support has anything on it.

Would it be ok to upgrate to the pre-release of the firmware upgrade?

[Adam01]

Ok, now the DMZ works (before, the router rebooted)
This is just to improve performances on xbox live, would it be ok to place the xbox outside the firewall?

Well, I wouldn't do it, but then I know very little about the XBOX and it's security. I'd suggest to search online for information about that and maybe post a question in the Misc Section.

Anyway, glad it works! :-)
