Port forwarding for TL-ER5120

Hi,
I have a setup with 2 Fritsbox 7360's in front of the TL-ER5120.
Now I want to forward port 1194 to my wifi router that is behind the TL-ER5120, so in the Fritsbox I have set up the TL-ER5120 as exposed host.
So far so good.
On the lan side of the TL-ER5120 everything functions well also.
The problem I seem to be having is getting the TL-ER5120 to forward port 1194 to the wifi router, I have found several settings that I think should help me forward.
The virtual server setting.
NAT-DMZ
and the firewall --> access control --> access rules and services.
The manual states that the virtual server setting should be enough.
I would expect the same from the NAT-DMZ.
To be sure that the firewall does not block things I also tried both of those with explicit 'allow' settings for port 1194.
Nothing seems to be working.
I've been connecting through the wifi of the fritsbox and connecting to the TL-ER5120's wan IP address, in order to eliminate the possibility that the fritsbox could be the problem.
I've also found an DMZ option that will separate the lan, though that would mean that wifi users would no longer have access to the printers etc.
So that is not what I want.
I am unsure why port forwarding is not working, and hope someone here can give me the tip I need to get things working the way I want it to.
