Subsonic Forum

I'm at a loss here. Subsonic was working fine before this weekend, no hiccups. All the sudden, I have nothing.

I'm behind a Linksys WRT54GL router and a Vonage VDV22-VD modem. Ports are forwarded to 80 and 4040 on both. Nothing has been installed or changed on my computer over the weekend either.

canyouseeme.org for your 4040 port..does it pass? I suspect Vonage updated the router/modem.

Apparently it can't. Says connection refused. Awesome. No idea what the hell to do from here.

Again, the Vonage is suspect, so ensure it has no firewall or is completely turned off. Then, attempt to canyouseeme.org again for 4040 on the router (there is NO reason to have two SPI firewalls running simultaneously). No joy, then re-open 4040 on the router again, reboot, and retry. SS will not work externally until canyouseeme passes the 4040 test.

I ran Vonage for several years before switching to Ooma. Both work fine connected to my switch. Neither really needs to be between the modem and the router as they ask you to do. If you just connect it to a switch or an open port on the router it should be out of the way and let the router handle the DHCP and port forwarding.

Took your advice and went this route and it worked. I don't what happened over the weekend but I can only assume it was something to do with the Vonage router seeing as how I never had problems until this POS came along.

Thanks guys.
