How to disable a thomson firewall

[Sp00n]

I've tried disabling via the web interface and also via telnet but the stupid POS is still blocking ports.

Does anyone know any magic tricks on how to stop it?

I have to add in port forwards manually within the web interface jsut to get RDP/VNC working so I can get on to the servers remotely, thats after the 2 different ways of disabling.

Even if its non-nat and the firewall behind the thomson has its own public ip?

It would seem i dont fully remember my own setup.

As it stands, the bebox has the public ip, the hardware firewall sits on the 192.168.1.x range.

I suppose the only way i could do it maybe would be to create a range of 0 - 55555 or something and just forward everything that way but it just seems stupid as I am assuming its NAT enabled (dont actually have the option).

I realise now why it doesnt work, i guess its the companies own fault for not buying a proper router.

Please excuse my stupidity, its been a long old day.


/edit so I've created an application group with 0 - 55555 on the ports but the bugger still won't telnet through to the port i need
