Re: Fibre NH20A port forwarding issues: works for some ports, not for others
I actually managed to solve this. In my case, I went through a trial-and-error process adding features in the WAN settings until I got the desired behaviour. In this case, it was all on my end. For people looking at this thread in the future: I used netcat to open up a listening port on my computer, and then used an online port-checker to see if it could connect to my computer over UDP. E.g., nc -l 2456 When I was relying on the docker container exposing the port, the port-checking tools would list the port as closed. When using netcat, suddenly the port-checkers would report 2456 as open. So, I could tell that the issue was with the docker container, not with my router :S As for disabling the firewall: You need to login to your admin panel for the modem: 192.164.1.254. From there, under the network tab you can see the settings for the firewall. What are the specifics of the PF setup you're working on?

I’m hitting the same challenges as you are and that PF works for ~3 minutes after resetting the device makes me point to something not allowing traffic through the device.

I tried rebooting the router and unfortunately that didn't resolve the issue. One interesting thing: it briefly showed up in-game as an available server. This makes me think that maybe there's something in the router config that's borked. Can't figure out what that might be, as there's nothing outside of the changes I listed :S10KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Fibre NH20A port forwarding issues: works for some ports, not for others
I can ping the server both directly and through the domain. Traceroute is fine in 9 hops and reasonable time. noip.com is the dynamic dns provider, but the issue persists when directly connecting via ip, so I don't think it's the issue. The inability to connect seems to be specific to the ports because I can ssh (22) fine.10KViews0likes0CommentsFibre NH20A port forwarding issues: works for some ports, not for others
I'm trying to port-forward for a valheim server. Ports 2456-2458 computer acting as server has a DHCP reservation server is setup as DMZ firewall is down setup up with a dynamic dns The interesting part: ssh port-forwarding works at the IP address assigned and the dynamic dns domain (port forwarding for 22 works) I can connect to the server on the local network by entering the local ip address (the server is up and accessible, if only locally) when I try to connect to the ip address or ddns domain in-game, I can't connect when I try to check if the port is open, common tools say that it's not open UPNP is off The configuration is the same between ssh and valheim, so I'm scratching my head as to why it's not redirecting appropriately. Any tips?10KViews1like11Comments
