my home system uses 3 pcs with win98se connected via hub and alcatel
modem/router and adsl line
to play wordzap in a games lobby i need to have udp port 8321 open.

i can open it on the router using the nat feature and creating an
entry based on the current ip assigned by the isp. however, when i
disconnect adsl for any reason and reconnect a new ip is assigned by
the ip. the previous routing is then useless and i have to re program
the router.

is there any way to keep this port permanently open on the alcatel
speed touch pro modem /router?

thanks

dan
