R6900v2 not port forwarding
Following instructions carefully but not working. My cams are set to be static. But have a couple still dynamic just as as a test. None port forward. I can see them on LAN fine I used to have an older Linksys router on another ISP and had no problem with my cams port forwarding.
What could be blocking?

Returned unit for a refund. Even the Netgear tech couldn't figure it out. So I went back to my old ancient Linksys router. It worked with no problems. Slow as snot but I can at least view my home security cams from afar. I guess that's my best situation. So I'm over it now. Thanks.
