new router locks out nntp?


Recommended Posts

i just installed a router so that i could use the ps2 network adapter and stay online. it works perfect, except i can't use usenet anymore. i can fine now that i've unplugged from the router and direct connected to my computer. i've turned the hardware firewall off on my router, but still it doesn't work. and i'm not completely sure if i need to open that port still or not..

i am using a winxp 797mhz pIII. and the router is a speedstream 2614.

i should add that i use road runner and to access my nntp server i just put in 'news-server' for the address. that seems to be a problem. i'm not sure though.

any ideas?

ryan.
