Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, but Linksys does not, at this time, provide technical support for setup, configuration or
troubleshooting of any non-Windows operating systems.
I set up an Unreal Tournament Server, but others on the LAN cannot join. What do I need to
do?
If you have a dedicated Unreal Tournament server running, you need to create a static IP for
each of the LAN computers and forward ports 7777, 7778, 7779, 7780, 7781, and 27900 to the IP
address of the server. You can also use a port forwarding range of 7777 to 27900. If you want to
use the UT Server Admin, forward another port (8080 usually works well but is used for remote
admin. You may have to disable this.), and then in the [UWeb.WebServer] section of the
server.ini file, set the ListenPort to 8080 (to match the mapped port above) and ServerName to
the IP assigned to the Router from your ISP.
Can multiple gamers on the LAN get on one game server and play simultaneously with just
one public IP address?
It depends on which network game or what kind of game server you are using. For example,
Unreal Tournament supports multi-login with one public IP.
How do I get Half-Life: Team Fortress to work with the Router?
The default client port for Half-Life is 27005. The computers on your LAN need to have
"+clientport 2700x" added to the HL shortcut command line; the x would be 6, 7, 8, and on up.
This lets multiple computers connect to the same server. One problem: Version 1.0.1.6 won't let
multiple computers with the same CD key connect at the same time, even if on the same LAN
(not a problem with 1.0.1.3). As far as hosting games, the HL server does not need to be in the
DMZ. Just forward port 27015 to the local IP address of the server computer.
How can I block corrupted FTP downloads?
If you are experiencing corrupted files when you download a file with your FTP client, try using
another FTP program.
The web page hangs; downloads are corrupt, or nothing but junk characters are being
displayed on the screen. What do I need to do?
Force your Ethernet adapter to 10Mbps or half duplex mode, and turn off the "Auto-negotiate"
feature of your Ethernet adapter as a temporary measure. (Please look at the Network Control
Panel in your Ethernet adapter's Advanced Properties tab.) Make sure that your proxy setting is
disabled in the browser. Check our website at www.linksys.com for more information.
If all else fails in the installation, what can I do?
Reset the Router by holding down the Reset button for ten seconds. Reset your cable or DSL
modem by powering the unit off and then on. Obtain and flash the latest firmware release that
is readily available on the Linksys website, www.linksys.com.
How can I be notified of new Router firmware upgrades?
All Linksys firmware upgrades are posted on the Linksys website at www.linksys.com, where
they can be downloaded for free. The Router's firmware can be upgraded using the Web-based
Utility. If the Router's Internet connection is working well, there is no need to download a newer
