Does anyone know how I can enable or use the loopback in this modem?, it seems that the public ip address when typed into IE, is redirected to the modems config screen, when I use telnet to access the modems linux o/s, and type 'ifconfig lo' it shows the loopback as 127.0.0.1, this is the correct assignment, but for some reason, the wan ip address is redirected to the config, I need to be able to utilize, the loopback for local testing of the webserver.

If anyone knows linux, I can email them the modems config.xml file and the text files of the iptables and the routing table, maybe someone can figure out how to get the loopback to work.
