Port forwarding does not take effect

Hi

When I setup port forwarding on my Orbi unit, it does not take effect.
I have forwarded the following ports to our PS4 console 

 

80, 443, 1935, 3478-3480, 3074, 3659, 6000, 10000-10150, 42127

But when I test from the outside, it says the ports are closed, and the PS4 also does not recognize this, it reports NAT-3.

Port forwarding worked fine with our previous router, an ASUS RT-AC87U.

 

I have tried with UPnP both On and Off, same problem.


What could be the reason, how to fix it?

        What browser are you using? 

        Be sure to clear all browser caches before entering into the RBRs web page. 

         

        Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last update?
