Hi Jeremy Kiffiak,

I seem to have missed your email pointing out the error of my ways until 
I saw Patrick's comments!  Yes I missed the point that you were 
suggesting LAN side connections not the WAN port.  I agree that should 
work bearing in mind Patrick's qualifications.

The last two emails suggesting a firewall problem may be part of 
Murray's problem but he did mention port 631 (ipp) so I assume he had 
taken care of that.  Murray, if you not, you need to open your 
computer's firewall to port 631 (ipp) not just the router firewall.  
However, if you want to use the WAN side and not the LAN side as a 
connection to Router 1 my earlier suggestion of using the DMZ still applies.
