hello -
i work at home and i have a business line coming into my house and i host several non-production functions for the company.
due to some ever-bungling changes at comcast, i will soon be without any sort of NAT/Firewall hardware.
i'm looking at this netgear equipment for the job:
http://www.netgear.com/products/details/FVX538.php
there's one feature that i really need however, and i do not know exactly what to call it (port forwarding sounds too broad, though it may be correct.).
here's the scenario - a fellow developer cannot connect to my development sql server because his ISP does not allow port 1433 transmissions.
so i receive his 14333 transmission and route it internally to x.x.x.x:1433.
this is a must.
other than that, it looks like i can get what i need out of a wide range of products.
any help would be appreciated.
