I have Speedstream 2614 (NAT, Firewall, DHCP), cable conection, Win 2k remote, win 98 host.

I need pcAnywhere to execute a remote aplicantion and print locally.

How I can setup the speedstream 2614 to use pcAnywhere to connect a remote pc with a host pc on my net.

I tried open ports (5631,5632) but don't work.
 
you would need to login to your router and enable "virtual server". what this does is allow remote access to a specific port on the router which can be your "server". example: your're at work and you want to access your pc at home. you would then browse to the router's ip address on port 80, 5800 ect (pc anywhere uses some other port i think). then the router would direct traffic to whatever port you set it to do so. the only draw back is it will be tricky with the firewall enabled and also you would need a static ip from your isp. let us know if you need more help. "Jack of all trades. Master of none."
 
As for the static IP, you can always use dyndns.org to have your IP updated regularly. I think there's also some programs which can send out emails to a email adr with the current IP.

bootleg, thats very true however with his equiptment it is nessesary to have it set as static in the router in order to do as mentioned. "Jack of all trades. Master of none."
 

The ports that you opened should be mapped to your host. Also it requires UDP and TCP of those ports to be open.
