Model: Deco M4  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.62

 

I'm having some weird problem with no inbound traffic getting into my network - not sure if this is an ISP problem, but that's unrelated.

As a test I tried to remove a NAT forwarding that wasn't working and add it again, and as I tried to add it again, this happened. As you can see, I have chosen a device, but there is no "Choose" button. If I put the app in background and return, I get a Choose button in the upper right corner, but pressing that crashes the app.

 

Manually typing IP and MAC address works, but it's really annoying to do.

Fingers crossed for a stable 1.7 release for the M4 V2!

But hmm, now I removed all my port forwards and tried again, and it worked. A bit counterintuitive though that you select a host, then go back and see it selected, then click close. But it works so I don't mind.

 

I noticed another bug though:

The port forwards are supposed to allow multiple ports, separated by '-'. So something like '22-80-443' would probably be common. But the external ports don't pass validation if I enter more than two ports. Internal passed once I edit the external field. So something is definitely wrong there.

 

I've always defined every port separately, but it would be pretty convenient if I could put all the ports for one host in one definition.

Fingers crossed for a stable 1.7 release for the M4 V2!

Hi, thanks for your feedback here.

If you set like "22-80" for both Internal and External Port, did you test both ports can be opened and the function works properly?

As I know, Only one port can be open at a time. You may refer to the guide.

Yeah I never thought to open multiple ports with one definition before I saw it mentioned in the app. It says multiple ports can be defined by separating them with a "-".

Doesn't matter though, I already went back to one port per definition, but if said configuration doesn't work, maybe you should remove the mention of it from the app :)

Fingers crossed for a stable 1.7 release for the M4 V2!
