For VPN port forwarding on the Telus T3200M router, you can try using port 500 UDP for IKE (Internet Key Exchange) and port 4500 UDP for NAT-T (Network Address Translation Traversal).

Additionally, check if there is any VPN passthrough or VPN-related settings on the T3200M router that need to be enabled to allow VPN traffic to pass through properly to the AX58U router.

However, only private WAN IP is assigned due to the router is acting as secondary router. Is there any suggested port for WireGuard and OpenVPN that AX58U currently supports?
