I've been told that I need to configure port forwarding on my Speedtouch 530 modem.

My setup->

telephone jack-> dsl modem-> airport express-> computer.

Using a browser I type in the documented ip address 10.0.0.138 of the dsl modem. Nothing loads up. Is this because of the airport express being located in between the modem and the computer? Is there a way I can access the dsl modem config screen without a direct connection to computer?

Thanks,

lw

No.

10.x.x.x is a range of "private" IP addresses that are non-routable: they may not, under any circumstances, be routed onto the public Internet. You must be on the same subnet to use them, and the Airport's router is (correctly) separating you from it.

So indeed, you must be connected directly (hub or switch is OK) to the DSL modem.
