ICMP Blocked

Hi,

I have just upgraded to a dlink dsl-6740U, after trying the same settings my old router had, i'm still unable to open a hole in the firewall for HE tunnel.

If i turn off the firewall everything is fine, i need some help with the inbound filters:

Is that 66. address the HE side? You could do a 255.255.255.255 subnet mask and that should work.

there are no ports for ICMP

Obviously the destination is whatever PC you're using for your tunnel

"whatever PC you're using for your tunnel" means my lan ip or my public ip?
i tried the lan ip and it didn't work and also the default gateway with a subnet mask didn't work either..
-ERROR: IP is not ICMP pingable. Please make sure ICMP is not blocked. If you are blocking ICMP, please allow 66.220.2.74 through your firewall.

You need to allow ICMP on the firewall, not forward it through the firewall. there should be an option somewhere to allow pings.

That's the only way i know how to do it and it worked fine on the previous router, if you know any other ways let me know..

The LAN IP (192.168.1.x or whatever)
