Port Forwarding on RS700

Hi all!

 

I received my RS700 several days ago and I'm pretty happy with Wi-Fi speeds, coverage and setup. However, I'm struggling to get port forwarding to work. I have Pace 5268AC modem/router from AT&T and RS700 in DMZ Plus mode. AT&T's network is 192.168.1.0/24 and RS700's 10.0.0.0/24. I have some services running on my network and one of them is listening on port 7809 - when I navigate to 10.0.0.200:7809 in my web browser I can access the service. As soon as I enable port forwarding on RS700, I can no longer access this service either by using local IP or external IP from inside of my network (my computer's IP is 10.0.0.10). However, I can access this service via external IP from outside of my network. The interesting thing is I can telnet into port 7809 either by using internal or external IP, but I can't access this IP via the web interface. I tried enabling/disabling Armor on RS700 as well as settings in WAN Setup (Disable Port Scan and DoS Protection, IGMP Proxying, NAT Filtering (Secured, Open)) to no avail. My previous Netgear router (R8500) worked fine with the same home network config and ISP's equipment. I tried running Wireshark and all I'm seeing is TCP Retransmission and TCP Spurious Retransmission messages when port forwarding is enabled. UPNP is disabled.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi ALNiKO,

Thank you for working with us offline. As you have confirmed the tiral firmware has fixed the issue, and we will include the fix in a maintenance release, which we expect to happen later this year.

Re: Port Forwarding on RS700

Hi ALNiKO,

I would like to make sure I understand your issue correclty, is this description correct?

* When the Port Forwarding rule is disabled

  - local computer 10.0.0.10 can access http://10.0.0.20:7809 and http://<external IP>:7089 (or https?)

 

* When the Port Forwarding rule is disabled

  - local computer 10.0.0.10 cannot access http://10.0.0.20:7809 or http://<external IP>:7089.

  - But the lcoal computer 10.0.0.10 can access

      > telnet 10.0.0.10 7089

      > telnet <external IP> 7089

  - And an external computer can access http://<external IP>:7089.

Thanks.

This is correct.

Re: Port Forwarding on RS700

I was just losing my mind trying to figure out what was wrong with my server, what a huge oversight. Can I get the new firmware as well?

Re: Port Forwarding on RS700

Hello,

 

I have a similar issue that is happening with a NVR server for local use as well as a security team for after business hours that would monitor remotely. The firmware addressed the port forwarding issue but now when the remote users access the Live video feed it is very choppy, losses connection, or buffers continuously. After the firmware was installed I did a factory reset and reconfigured as well, any tips for this?

 

I also have tried other Netgear Wi-Fi routers with no issues on that hardware.

 

Thanks,
