[Ham-Mac] EchoMac Success Story! (DSL via a D-Link Router to G4 with OSX 10.4.7)

[Rick Prather]

Glad you got it working Dick.

For those with a Linksys router all that is needed is to go to the  
configuration menu > Applications & Gaming > Port Triggering then  
Type in "Echomac" (and in my case since I use Echolink under Boot  
Camp) "Echolink" > insert 5198 and 5199 in the "Triggered Range" and   
"Forwarded Range" columns.

Then you are good to go on any computer you have connected to that  
router.

73,
