Multiple Routers / Single Lan Question
We are moving an app server to a new IP address (switching internet providers and we have both active for 1 week). This poses a problem as the app server is in use 24/7 and we cannot be down to switc...

An update, we turned off the windows firewall on the app server and vola we can now ping the app server from both routers.
However, port forwarding is not working at all on the 2nd router.
Orig router, lan is 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 DHCP on
New router, lan is 192.168.1.128 255.255.255.0 DHCP off
App server is on the orig router, 192.168.1.10, gateway is 192.168.1.1
From the new router, on the diag page, I can ping the app server. Why, then, is it not forwarding any ports to the pc? I have double, triple checked the rule on the new router, and it is set to forward a specific port to 192.168.1.10...
We tried RDP as well and it is not working either.
We almost have this working, just this final setp.
Thanks for any assistance.
