Hi,
Can the same port be opened (say 12000) for two dreambox's using a linksys router.
Thanks

Hello, when using two dreamboxes there must be two different ports opened and set in the config of the dreambox.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
I am currently using the DMZ function in the linksys to giv access to port 12000 on Dreambox 1.
If I open Port 12000 in Port Forwarding will it work for dreambox 2 (with a different ip address) or is it necessary to use a different port?

It is nessasery to open a different port for the second box, the connection will hop from one box to the other when you use the same port.

Many Thanks
I will need to talk to my isp.
