RAX80 - Port Forwarding Triggering List Hidden
Running the latest firmware update V1.0.11.148_1.0.82. I went to my Advanced > Port Forwarding / Triggering page only to find all services are missing as they are no longer listed.
I went to add some basic ones from memory like RDC 3389 and Plex Server 32400 only to find out it states that it conflicts with another service.... but there are zero services listed. I went ahead and did a test add for a port like 32444 and it added it, but it is the only one listed. Tried a couple more from memory for other programs that I've had to access in the past such as 7878 and 8989 and yet again it thinks there's a conflict with another service not listed.
I haven't fully factory reset my router, but have done a series of software and hard power reboots. Before I pin reset, is there another troubleshooting method or do I have a bigger issue?

Make a configuration backup, then do a Factory Reset.
If you are lucky, there is a point during the configuration where there is a choice:
- Load a saved configuration, or
- Continue to configure manually
Loading a saved configuration can make the process very quick. Again, if you are lucky, the router will work correctly.
Make a configuration backup, then do a Factory Reset.
Maybe. But restoring that config might also re-introduce the problem (since it could be caused by a corrupted config).
True. Reloading a saved configuration might re-introduce the problem. This would imply that only a full reconfiguration might work. (or, maybe the RAX80 firmware needs to be downgraded.... or......???)
My point is that this is a relatively quick and easy experiment. It takes me almost two hours to do a full Factory Reset on my Orbi system (much of the time correcting numerous typos). Whereas, I have done this "quick reset" in well under ten minutes.
Are you referring to this list?
