The wl500g is behind the livebox from orange this livebox already has a firewall running.
Sinds the wl500g runs in ap mode je cant stop the fire wall from the web config.
So it has to be done with telnet but I dont now the command for that.

Can somebody help me out here.


Also with port do I have to open to share my smbshare online?

To disable firewall, you can just rename the /etc/init.d/S45firewall to something like K45firewall :

Code:
mv  /etc/init.d/S45firewall  /etc/init.d/K45firewall


For samba filesharing, you can forward tcp port 139.

Beware that opening this port and running samba is not a very secure combination. I for one wouldnt trust the build-in security in samba if I opned it all to the internet.

You should consider mounting the smb share through a ssh tunnel instead, one page with some info on how to do it is here:
http://www.bitvise.com/file-sharing.html
or here:

mv  /etc/init.d/S45firewall  /etc/init.d/K45firewall

this is what I get

[admin@myasus root]$ mv  /etc/init.d/S45firewall  /etc/init.d/K45firewall
mv: unable to rename `/etc/init.d/S45firewall': No such file or directory
[admin@myasus root]$ cd /etc
[admin@myasus etc]$ ls

[admin@myasus etc]$ cd /opt
[admin@myasus /opt]$ ls

that is easy, with the  http browser enter in the firewall configuration page and disable it,
or in the console write the commands:
nvram set  fw_enable_x=0
nvram commit
