R7000 Port Forwarding

Has anyone had an issue where port forwarding stops working after a couple of days after updating to 1.0.9.88? After a reboot it starts working again but only for a while.   Thanks Doug

Ok, rolled back my firmware and still having issues. After an hour or so port forwarding stops working if I reboot the router it starts working again for an hour or so. Any Ideas?

 

Thanks Doug

Did you do a router reset? The hidden button on back, held in for say 10 seconds? Different from reboot. 

Then reconfigure as this puts the router configuration back to out of box. Do not use a backup file.

 

This has fixed issues for folks that have changed firmware versions, both up and down.
