FVS318G Nat and classic routing.

I have just bought a FVS318G. I have a Netgear DG834 from a ISP with 5 static IPs. 1 IP is used for the firewall address and one must be used for general use and internet for all the office PCs.(NAT). The other must be used for perticular servers on a static route. Example Server1 internal IP 192.168.xxx.238 to external IP 197 229.xxx.17. If I use normal port forwarding it seems that the packets go out via the server IP but coming back via the firewall IP. I am lost. Is there anyone that can help please.

  • you need to use classical routing instead of inbound rules

    classical routing will kill the NAT as well
