Port 80 Redirection
Model :
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Modem Model : TD-W896ON
Hardware Version : V7
Firmware Version : 1.0.9 Build 160614 Rel.41323 (which I think is the latest)
I need to use NAT to redirect port 80 to a web server I have. Whilst I can redirect other ports using Virtual Servers, when I add a WEB service (either by selecting the WEB from the list of Services or by creating a Custom service) I get the error "Since port 80 is used, the Modem Router WEB server port will be moved to 8080".
This message would seem to imply that the router configuration page would be switched to port 8080. However, it is not. Instead the entry in the Virtual Servers list shows that my WEB service external port has been changed to port 8080 and consequently I cannot access my website from the WAN.
I know an alternative option would be to translate port 80 externally from the WAN to another port address internally on the LAN and change the webserver, but although I changed my webserver to several different ports, this also didn't work. Several previous routers have all had no problems with letting port 80 to be passed to my server but as my last router is having problems, I had bought this new one,
I know this problem has been posted in this forum before but I could find no solution in the threads. Has anyone solved this problem?
