XR1000 - OPEN NAT NOT WORKING
Hi, Need serious help on changing NAT type to OPEN. My network provider gave me router, in that i enabled UPnp, and added a entry for port forwarding. and as last step changing my IP to static....

I can't see the images you've attached as they're not yet moderated I'm afraid.
What's the exact make and model of your ISP router/modem?
What I would suggest doing would be to remove your port forwarding rules, then put the XRs WAN IP in the ISP router/modem's DMZ. Then, make sure that IP is reserved for the XR in the ISP router/modem's LAN settings, this will ensure it doesn't change again in future.
After that, your NAT should be open.

Thank you so much. It worked!!
Another query. Whenever i restart my XR1000, the duma os is not working. it says "Duma OS not loaded". I will have to factory reset the router, and do all those initial setup again, then only the duma OS loads. Currenly Im in this verson "1.0.0.58_1.0.44". This happen everytime. Any fix for that?

Awesome, no problem!
How long approximately are you waiting after the reboot before accessing the interface? I'd suggest leaving it a good few minutes otherwise you would definitely expect to see the 'DumaOS has not loaded yet' splash page.
- HammerSludgeFeb 04, 2022AspirantI left it for around around 15 to 20 minutes. Should I wait for another 20min?

No that should be plenty enough, perhaps try clearing cach and refreshing the browser. The browser may have cached that splash page for some reason.

Im sorry. No it does not work. Cleared cookies and cache. tried different browser. Waited for long time. Still "Duma OS not loaded".
