My home network looks like this: I -> Linksys WRT54GS (1192168 ... 1) -> Actiontec GT701-WG (1192168 ... 0) -> Internet (DSL) that treatment of the port forwarding to see if it will increase the speed of transmission bitTorrentJ'ai my Linksys router correct port my (static) IP address. Actiontec need to forward that port to the Linksys, but do not know the IP address from outside the Linksys interface. I found a site for a temporary tracert, but that s is presented as a group of asterisks (probably my ISP is blocking the information.) I tried to telnet into the Actiontec, and traceroute I, but once I connect (using a Linux shell) not my lyrics, is the CLI. I tried with telnet and with the putty problème.Je even know that the address in question will be on the same subnet 192 168 .. 0. 1255. 255. 255. 0 (which is how I get to the Actiontec), but I guess-and-check is too long.

http://www.showmyip.com/ will show you your external WAN IP address, if that’s what you’re looking for.
If there are more layers, you may have to log into your router and check the address it got from outer layer, whatever that is in your case.
Go to the linksys’s router page.. and go to the status tab and it should give you its IP assigned by the Actiontec DHCP server
Hi,
I am sure that the network displayed above is incorrect.
Either u must have connected both actiontec and linksys to the dsl directly (as per the IP’smentioned) r the IP shown is incorrect.
Back to business, It is very simple, login to your linksys router and go to status tab, u will find LAN and WAN informations, the IP on WAN is the outside interfaces IP. And to do port forwarding, I would roco u to connect a pc directly to actiontec and then do port forwarding again u need to provide a static ip on the linksys as well.
GoodLuck,

You need to login to your ACTIONTEC router (you do know you are running TWO ROUTERS here) and put the linksys IP into the DMZ for the ActionTec if you want ANY port forwarding to work!
Here is the advanced configuration for your actiontec router/modem (its both a modem and router!)

As far as your LInksys “external” IP, its an internal IP off the actiontec if the actiontec is set to DHCP You can view this from the “STATUS” page of the linksys. The one that shows the WAN address is your “external” address, in this case an internal address off the actiontec. Nothing will work if both of these are in the same IP ranges..
If Actiontec is issuing 192.168.1.x addresses.. you have to set the Linksys to use 192.168.2.x on the Local network or some other range for any of this to work.
If the actiontec is actually at 192.168.0.1 and the linksys is at 192.168.1.1 then you are fine.. (0 and 1 are different lans) if they are both on 192.168.1.x you have major IP issues. Unless you turned off the DHCP of the linksys, and even then your routing to a router and that usually creates headaches unless they are different networks.
Hope that helps
Merry Christmas and God Bless
