RV082 Router: How do you get the DMZ/Internet Port working..

Archived from groups: comp.security.firewalls (More info?)

I just Purchased a RV082 Router for our small company. I am trying to
get a web server to work using the DMZ/Internet port. I have two
Public IP addresses (one for the Internet Connection - NAT Server) and
one for the Web Server. From reading the documentation it seems that
it is necessary to have a separate Public IP address for every server
you include in the DMZ zone. Anyway whenever I try to ping from the
DMZ server to anywhere I get Request Timed Out. I know from the
Access Rules that I cannot ping LAN but I should be able to ping
anything in the WAN. If anyone can offer suggestions it would be
greatly appreciated. I have spoken to the Linksys Helpdesk twice but
that turned out to be a giant waste of time. This is my configuration
data:

ROUTER CONFIG
LAN IP: 192.168.1.1
WAN IP: 68.x.x.13
DMZ IP: 68.x.x.14
Mode: Gateway
DNS1: 64.x.x.196
DMZ Host: Disabled

Web Server CONFIG
IP: 68.x.x.14
Gateway 68.x.x.1
DNS 64.x.x.196

From a computer on the LAN I can Access the Internet.... it is just
from the DMZ Server that nothing works.

I am far from being a network guy so ANY help would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks in advance.

DMZ needs to be a different subnet than the LAN I think. That is how it
is on most other firewall routers.

I used to sell these units but no longer. Too many returns due to
bugs. I now sell ZyWALL's and help my customers getting them up and
running.

Anyway, would you post the IP addresses/subnet masks for the DMZ and
WAN? I still think your problem resides here.
