My 2300 works great, wired and wireless. I have a server connected at 192.168.xxx.yyy with the router configured at 192.168.xxx.aaa.

I configured the Port Forwarding to use port 80 for HTTP for the server address of 192.168.xxx.yyy but I cannot ever get the server to respond. All I ever get is the Dell TrueMobile configuration authentication and utility to appear in the browser after I type the URL for my server. The router is configured to use port 8080 for administration, but it keeps responding on port 80??!!!

What am I doing wrong?

I am also having this same problem. It seems to me that setting the administration page port actually does nothing in the router.

Note that port forwarding does work for outside the network --- i.e. everyone else when they type your IP will get the web server --- but internally, the router always interprets requests on port 80 as requests for the admin page. It's very frustrating.
