port forwarding with an internet phone
ive been trying to port forward to setup some game servers but ran into a problem when i might have three seprate routers.
using a check multiple routers tool i downloaded i discovered i have two regular routers, a netgear(192.168.1.3) and an xfinity(10.0.0.1). but checking on the connected devices for the xfinity router showed one device being my internet based phone(10.0.0.2) which has its own port forwarding page.
it anyone could lend a hand on this it would be much appreceited as i dont even know where to begin with this.

let me add some screen caps to make this a bit more clear
this is the two supposed routers on my network
the being a netgear router and the second being an xfinity/comcast one
the xfinity router also shows another device connected, connecting to it shows this
this is also somehow the domain server for the netgear router
i should also point out the xfinity routers port forward page has the servers ip mostly grayed out
Hello Gamedroid
You should only have 1 router handling the DHCP so you will either need to bridge the modem or turn the other routers into access points so then you will be able to port forward your devices.
