HI ,

 

just got a new AX1800.  after a port swap I see that it answers port 53 TCP on the WAN / public IP side of the router.  How can I turn off answering port 53 on the public IP/ WAN side?

 

Cheers

Hello, Did you check from the inside (the LAN side) or outside (the WAN side) of the router? If you checked that from the LAN side, try from the WAN side. If it is not answering from the WAN side, there is no need to block it as it is blocked by default.

 

You can also check the UPnP setting on the router, which allows the router to be configured for port forwarding without your being aware of it in cases.

It is from the WAN side i checked.  It is not blocked on the WAN side.  Could be UPnP - will check soon.

Please let me know if it is enabled by UPnP automatically.
