Portforwarding stopped working
Router Firmware Version
V1.1.0.114_1.0.1
I used to be able to access my ports from external IP but today I realized I'm not anymore. I upgraded firmware, even did a factory reset, powered off for 30 secs but still I'm not able to open a port.
I've assigned IP to my desktop ubuntu at 192.168.1.2 and forwarded 80, 3000 and 8080 as you can see in the picture.
I've tried listening to a node express server: httpServer.listen(3000, '0.0.0.0');
I've tried nc -l 8080 & from the command-line.
I'm able to reach 192.162.1.2:3000 but not from my external IP.
What more can I do?
I just realized I had changed internet provider and did not have a public IP anymore. Called them and fixed it 😄

Netgear is making it harder to do things that are seen as security challenges.
For example, it recently killed ReadyCLOUD.

If that was in any way involved with what you were doing, forget it.

Well, that's a new one.
