firewall on WD8968 v4

Hi
I have the latest firmware now[CODE]

Firmware Version:	1.1.1 Build 151229 Rel.30697
Hardware Version:	TD-W8968 V4 0x00000001

[/CODE]
It says on the release notes firewall added, but I can't find it on the menus

I need to set up port forwarding, but not easy without firewall settings, and port 7777 is closed, which is what I would like.

However, if I cant use that port, is there a list of open by default ports WAN to LAN, so I could port forward from one of those.

many thanks
Richard

Hi
Yes I can see that , and enter input port and redirected port
But
when trying it I get a refused message.
BTW trying access with a mobile phone which IS on a different IP net so any incoming from that will be on the WAN.

Hence I need the firewall access to open the required port
Tnx

What service/server do you have on this port 7777? In local network everything is OK? Can you show me screenshot from Virtual Server and your settings?

Hi
[CODE]

Server Name	External Port Start	External Port End	Protocol	Internal Port Start	Internal Port End	Server IP Address	WAN Interface	Status	Enable/Disable	Edit	Remove
cam	7777	7777	TCP	7777	7777	192.168.51.139	pppoa0	Enabled	[/TD] [TD="bgcolor: #FAFAFA, align: center"]

[/CODE]

And what wasn't working now is.

TOTALLY CONFUSED NOW, its been rebooted several times, and failed to work after each reboot, ask a question on the forum and its working,
Who waved the magic wand ????:)
