Model: ER7206 (TL-ER7206)  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.2.3.

Team,

 

Suggestion (assuming this is not possible within the current firmware):

Allow customers to operate the router without using NAT.

Meaning allow the device to behave as a special router with firewall capabilities that can be turned on and off as needed.

 

This prevents double-natting when behind an ISP router. enlightened

While maintaining the ACL-capbilities for enhanced network security. heart

 

What is your view here?

 

 

Cheers - Will

Hi all,

This has been scheduled for V5.15 and adapted firmware.

Some models have beta firmware but if your model is not listed, please wait for the V5.15. If you need the beta, you should contact the technical support for the file.

Awesome news.  Any insight as to if this will be incorporated into the other Router's firmware within the 5.15 timeframe?  ER8411 specifically

Unfortunately, we cannot provide an estimated time of arrival (ETA) for the firmware update. It is currently scheduled for release in V5.15.
Please note that this will be an adapted firmware, not just a controller update. It's essential to understand that firmware development is a complex process, and timelines may change.

 

When introducing a feature like this, we typically apply it uniformly across all models to ensure consistency and a seamless user experience.
However, it's essential to acknowledge that hardware limitations may exist, which might prevent us from disabling NAT on certain models. In such cases, we cannot provide individual notifications explaining the reason. Please note that we cannot guarantee the fulfillment of all requests, and we must set clear expectations upfront.

Thank you for your valuable feedback.

I've reported to the developer team for evaluation.

Nice idea to find another issue behind a ISP router.

 

Maybe another way or a double way will be add a WAN option 60 to use directly the er605 for exemple directly as a "ISP router" too

Thumbs up. Also would like to have the option to disable NAT of ER7206 / ER-605 behind my ISP-Router. Greetings
