Hi k8mcn,
Please check the KB article below.
Check with your ISP and make sure that those ports are not blocked from their end.
Tried the steps on Port Forwarding ,com zero luck,i have used their directions for previous routers, but no luck with my R7000...guess maybe i should buy their software,as they "guarantee" results, unless anyone has a better idea?? Surely stumped on this one...have set my router to "Static", Windows Firewall is open, but "EchoLink requires that your router or firewall allow inbound and outbound UDP to ports 5198 and 5199, and outbound TCP to port 5200. If you are using a home-network router, you will also need to configure the router to "forward" UDP ports5198 and 5199 to the PC on which EchoLink is running.,and i just have not been able to get it!
