RS700 Nighthawk BE19000 - Port forwarding not working, even after new Firmware Version V1.0.7.86_2.0
My new RS700 Nighthawk BE19000 - Port forwarding not working, even after updating to the new Firmware Version V1.0.7.86_2.0 I have rebooted computers, router/modem many times and now also disable...
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6A STP is recommended.
Thanks for the reply,
I get internet service from an ethernet cable. So the router (in this case the Netgear) also acts as a modem, so to speak. The RS700/Netgear is offering great speed both wireless and wired (to my computers).
But any/all port-forwarding instructions are ignored, even though the computers still get the correct and previously assigned (Fixed) IP.

The RS700 is strictly a router, not a modem. By "internet service from an ethernet cable", is the other end of the ethernet cable connected to a modem (cable), ONT (fiber), or another router? If it's connected to another router that isn't set to bridge mode, you might need to make other configurations on that router.
