The ports vary with each reboot.

This link well tell you how to find which ports are in use by MJ at any given time -

http://www.phoneservicesupport.com/inco ... 48-15.html

The important part is reproduced below.

------------
PART ONE
------------
1.) In windows click the lower-left START button
2.) ...then click on the ...RUN item ( a pop-up box will pop-up)
3.) at the Open: space type "cmd" (without the quotes)
4.) hit OK (this brings up a DOS command-line terminal...)

---------------
PART TWO
---------------
1.) at the command prompt > type "netstat -an" (without the quotes)
2.) hit the return button
3.) a chart called "Active Connections" will appear

----------------------
PART THREE
----------------------
1.) the first column (reading left-to-right) is PROTO
2.) two types of protocols appear: TCP and UDP
3.) the second column (Local Address) reads: "ip_address:port_number"
4.) look for a line having these 3 values:
1... UDP (that's easy)
2... 127.0.0.1 (that's a little more difficult)
3... a port number between 40,000 and 65,000 (that's tough)
5.) EXAMPLE
UDP 127.0.0.1:58228 *.*

--------------------------
PART FOUR
--------------------------
1.) look for a matching line with the same "UDP, the same port_numeber,
but a different ip_address
UDP 192.168.1.7:58228 *.*
2.) the different ip_number is the ip address of your MagicJack unit

magic jack ports

Post by marandacar »

i have a zhone wireless modem in trinidad. i have gone into the nat and added ports 5060 and 5070. i checked if the ports were open and they are not. (i'm not experienced at doing these things, but i'm trying...lol) i don't know why i'm still getting the message that i'm not connected to internet. i have also tested out all my ethernet cables and they all work.
i tried to find a matching udp and tcp and could not find them in my list when i ran the netstat -an on the cmd. i'm at my wits end!
funny thing is, when i got my dsl, it worked the first day. when i called tstt in trinidad to find out why i was only running at 256 k and not 2 mg, they said they had to configure the modem onto the account. being an ex internet tech i understood because i had to check off a box on cx's accounts as well. since then i have been getting the error 3 and also error 23 at times.
i have powercycled, and waited for 10 seconds and did a restart on my laptop when i added the ports as well.
hopefully i could get more advice?
