How to disable the firewall?
HI, I have a Netgear c7000-100NAS modem and router combo. The firewall in my Netgear device is blocking FTP access to my files. It is a wordpress based site, I can access my dashboard and make changes. However, I can not access my files via FTP. I am using Godaddy’s Manage Wordpress and the only way to access the files are through FTP. They keep the files on their servers. Here is the error I get from my FTP client. An FTP error occurred. Can not make connection to host. User limit reached or not authorized to make connection due to local firewall blocking FTP data. I am using Firezilla for my ftp management. I have also tried it with Dreamweaver’s built in ftp client but still can not access. I have turned off the firewall on my computer. “I am using Mac by the way.” It still did not help. I am using sftp connection and port is 22 My lost option is to go into my Netgear’s Gateway settings and disable the firewall or add a rule to allow access to my ftp. I just do not know how to do that. Can someone help? Where do I go into the geteway settings and what do I change? Thank you
FVS336Gv3 multi-NAT inbound firewall rules not working
I have about 30 Netgear FVS338 and a few FVS336Gv2 routers in use. I use them to firewall and provide multi-NAT between industrial machines and the WAN. The configuration has changed on the Gv3 models and I can't get a response from behind the firewall or from the router diagnostics page when using the WAN address. In the examples below the WAN is 10.62. Figure 1. Two different devices showing two different configuration options. Figures 2 and 3. I know the first one is wrong - it would only allow connection from that address. Have I set up the second one correctly to NAT WAN address 10.62.31.55 to LAN address 10.3.110.215? Q1: Is Figure 3 set up correctly? Q2: Why is it forcing me to create an address range? On the older routers I had the option of just one address. Q3: Is anyone aware of any problems with this router?FVS336Gv2 Firewall config to block local LAN Internet Access.
I am having problems configuring my FVS336Gv2 firewall. Currently all local network devices are able to connect with the Internet with no problem. Mostly personal computers accessing the Internet for web access, email, etc. My goal is to block Internet access to some local network devices according to a Schedule based on their LAN Users group. The Outbound Policy looked like the easiest approach. I created an outbound policy that Block By Schedule and Allow otherwise for a specific LAN User (group). Activated and found that the device that should have been blocked was able to function normally. I know this would have only blocked one direction but that should have achieved my goal. Eventually I tried to block ALL traffic by changing the Default Outbound Policy to Block Always and I created an Inbound Policy that was set to Any Service, Block All, Any WAN user. Again all local network devices connected to the Internet with NO connectivity issues. In short the firewall was NOT preventing any devices from connecting to the internet. I feel that I must be overlooking something simple. It would appear that the firewall will NOT block ANY traffic originating from the LAN. Any thought would be appreciated. As mentioned I am working with a FVS336Gv2, Version 4.3.1-18. all Vlan ports are set to Default and only one active WAN.IPSEC Site to Site FVS336 to FVS318
Hi Netgear Community, I want to set up a Site to Site connection between FVS336 and FVS318 at our costumer s office. At there site the FVS318 is behind a firewall. They forward ESP, AH and Port 500 UDP to the device. Is there any possibility to check the ports (like telnet)? Both routers were configured by wizard. I just changed the mode to aggressive and the SA lifetime to 86400. The local subnets are 10.9.8.x and 192.168.4.x. Thank you a lot for any suggestions.R7100LG Eingehende Firewall Regeln
Hallo Community Ich suche mir gerade nen Wolf im Routermenu. Gibt es denn keine eingehenden Regeln in der Firewall des R7100LG, die man erstellen/bearbeiten kann? Wenn nein, können wir bei einem zukünftigen Firmware-Update damit rechnen? Sicherheit im Internet wird immer wichtiger und ich hätte gerne die Möglichkeit, unliebsame Portscans und andere neugierige Bots ect vor der Türe zu lassen. Gibt es Pläne zur Umsetzung oder kann man dieses Anliegen direkt an die Entwickler leiten? LG - Fox-Tech
