The router is a Cisco DPC3928S.
I tried to use telnet to get in, but the login was not the same as the router login. After 3 tries I got the msg that "telnet has been locked", LoL. Good o'le Megacable. I cannot change the router login, nor can I change the Static DNS settings. When I try to "Save" any of those, the router reboots and comes back up with their defaults back in. I am surprised I was able to change the wireless password in it. So, no bridged mode that I can see.
It appears to let me change the port forwarding, so here is what I tried, based on this guide: portforward.com/help/doublerouterportforwarding.htm
----------------------------------------------------
Cisco Modem/Router-
Local IP = 192.168.0.1 (default)
DHCP On, Range 192.168.0.10 (default)
Max Range DHCP Users = 119 (default)
Connected Devices = 192.168.0.11 (My Asus Router's 'external IP address')
Port Range Forwarding = 8181, 8282, 8383 to IP 192.168.0.11 (my router)
Note: 8181 is the only one I have in use by Calibre at this point. But when/if I can get this working, I will use the terminal mode to launch 3 Calibre-Server sessions for the 3 separate libraries I want to share
Asus RT-N16-
External IP = 192.168.0.11
Local IP = 192.168.5.15
Port Forward = 8181, 8282, 8383, to IP 192.168.5.168 (My Linux PC with Calibre)
-----------------------------------------------------
I have attached screenshots of the Port forward settings in the Cisco and Asus routers.
But, this setup does not appear to work. Checked it with grc.com and it says the ports are "stealthed", which means they are not showing as open.
And I checked it with yougetsignal.com and they are not showing open their either.
I did remove the default Mint Linux firewall and installed the firewall-applet from Red Had, and added the 8181 port only for now for testing.
That didn't help, so I saved the firewall settings and stopped it totally. Still no cigar...
So, still stuck...
