hey guys,

now i know your thinking 'he should post this on the steam forums'. But i registered and 30minutes later am still waiting for authorization.

thing is i bought hl2 voucher and downloaded steam and installed...but now its telling me steam is temporarily unavailable, and its not because the update page is fine (its updating) and it says its online.

the thing is i AM using NAT on a dlink router, but according to www.portfoward.com it doesnt foward a range of ports properly, has anyone else had this problem? should i just turn NAT off...i think i can do that (DLINK 504-g v2).

help pls.


-just found out, i cant have more than 11 rules for portfowarding and steam requires ABOUT 30. has anyone done range portfoward on a DLINK 504?

have you updated the firmware?

I've got a dlink-504 dunno what gen but when i first got it msn wouldn't send files as well as other s*** was arsed.

Check out
http://www.dlink.com.au/ and grab yourself the latest firmware its pretty standard to install

yeah i got the latest firmware, doesnt help at all. thanks though.
