Hi !

do you translate one port at once for the pc or do you translate a range of ports ?

  @Pascal 

I entered both in my Port forwarding list, please see below:

Hi ,

thanks for this hint, but it doesn't help. I worked through the guide, the only thing which worked for me is the section "Direct Connection".

So that means to me that there is either an miss configuration of my site or a malfunction of the router. My PC is the same without changing anything. When iI connect directly into the Vodafone Station it works fine (Nat type open), and when I connect back to the ER8411, I get NAT Type strict.

seems you got the same issue than me,

apparently ER8411 is not ready to correctly manage Ports adresses translations.

I opened a ticket support with TP-Link, but once they seen I posted on the community they replied that an engineer take care my request now on the community forum.

Problem is the latest replies from both

as the enginner on the forum told they will fix this issue with the next BETA firmware.of the CONTROLLER.

I already insist to the fact that the router show same issue in Stand Alone mode and I doubt a update of the controller can resolve an issue append in Stand Alone mode....

NO REPLY from the engineer about this constatation.

This sound not good and I'm not really happy to spend money for a router ENTREPRISE level that's is clearly not working as expected with BASIC fonctions like ports forwarding.

Hi Hank,

it is a public IP.

So just to confirm:

 

1. if you remove ALL user port forwards, enable uPNP and power cycle the router it doesn't work?

2. if you remove ALL user port forwards, enable DMZ pointed at your PC address and power cycle the router it doesn't work?

 

(you can take a controller backup if you don't want to re-enter them all manually after testing).

 

The power cycle seems to be important with TPLink routers, I've experienced a few situations where a controller induced change didn't really take cleanly.

  @d0ugmac1 Will try it in the afternoon and give feedback then.

Thanks

Hello,

as promised, here is my test report for your suggestion:

What I have done:

1) Export the seetings of my OC200 controller.

2) Deleting all entries from Port Forwarding

3) Disable UPNP, because it was enabled for ale ntworks

4) Rebooting Router, rebooting OC200

5) Enabled UPNP ()

6) Test failed

7) Powered off my router again, wait one minute and powered on

8) Test again no change

9) Entered my PC under Port Forwarding as DMZ

10) Powered off my router again, wait one minute and powered on

11) Test again no change

Kind regards

Thorsten
