about 8 months ago, I added a router (a necessary evil as I see it) to be able to run Vonage and a second computer off the cable. I took my time and set up every port from 80 to 10000, lol. I downloaded the utility "portopentest.exe" and ran it to confirm my settings and got an "ok" on every single port I set up.
NOW, for some unknown reason, none of those ports are forwarded any more, despite the fact that the original configuration is just as I originally set it up. I still have the same Motorola Modem, Linksys Router and Linksys Cable Modem I've always used. I checked the default Gateway address to ensure that was still correct, I verified that the DMZ was enabled and so on and so forth.
As far as I can see nothing has changed. Does the replacing of the Motherboard and processor enter into this in any way? In Lieu of that, does anyone have a suggestion that requires me to look at anything that I haven't mentioned here?
