Port Forwarding for Tablo Quad

I am trying to set up port foward on my orbi router to lock in the Tablo i have.   The UNPC is not working and I keep having to uncheck and check remote access.  

 

If I send screenshots can someone guide on how to set this up correctly

 

 

Thank you in advance

Re: Port Forwarding for Tablo Quad

What Firmware is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too? Any built in router here by chance?

 

If uPnP is enabled on the RBR, then you may not need any PF configurations.

The Tablo User Guide (Chapter 6) seems to have the information required to set up port forwarding, if you think it is necessary.

I am such a "homebody" that being able to access my DVR from elsewhere isn't relevant.

Re: Port Forwarding for Tablo Quad

I keep forgetting to ask how you administer the Orbi: using the Orbi web interface or using the Orbi "app".

Port forwarding can be set up only using the web interface.

It is on the Advanced Tab->Advanced Setup->Port Forwarding/Port Triggering.  This is described in Chapter 8  of the Orbi User Manual:

Re: Port Forwarding for Tablo Quad

I know where to go to get to the port forward feature.

What I am asking is based on the attachment I included. How do I set it up?

Great, navigate to Advanced Tab->Advanced Setup->Port Forwarding. Then,

  • Turn on Port Forwarding
  • Click "Add a Custom Service"
  • Give it a name, such a Quad1
  • Enter the external port information "21308"
  • Uncheck "Use the same internal"
  • Enter the internal port "8887"
  • Enter the IP address of the Quad "128"
  • Click "Apply"
  • Click "Add a Custom Service"
  • Give it another name, such as Quad2
  • Enter the external port information "21307"
  • Uncheck "Use the same Internal"
  • Enter the internal port "80"
  • Enter the IP address of the Quad "128"
  • Click "Apply"

Port forwarding is now set up.  Go back to the Quad, go to the same page, and click "Test.."

 

Good Luck

Re: Port Forwarding for Tablo Quad

It seems to have worked.   I had to turn off UPNP option to get the second quad 2 set up.  Can I turn it back on now?  

 

Also do I leave the Protocol TCP/UDP?

Re: Port Forwarding for Tablo Quad

The instructions said "TCP".  Saying "TCP/UDP" is not necessary, but probably does not hurt.  I would follow their dorections.  (Sorry, I got in a hurry and typed before thinking.)

 

UPNP .... beats me.
