Model: ER605 (TL-R605)  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version:

Hello everyone,

I'm hoping someone can help me troubleshoot an issue

My current setup is ISP modem in bridge mode - ER605 v2.0 router - Omada Controller. My Synology NAS is connected to the router and has a fixed IP of 192.168.0.10.

My goal is to access my Plex server outside my home network, but I'm having trouble with port forwarding. Specifically, I need to forward port 32400 to the fixed IP of my NAS. I have attempted this setup .However, it seems that the setup is not working as intended.

Any ideas on what could be causing this issue and how to resolve it? I would appreciate any help or suggestions. Thank you!

  @RicardoVR 

 

Hi, what is the wan ip of ER605?

If it is a private IP, you also need to open the port on the front-end NAT device.

Just striving to develop myself while helping others.

  @RicardoVR , I have a ER7206, I did the same thing and also tried UPNP and also Port Triggering  but my Plex only shows connection for a few minutes and then display again "Not available outside your network"

 

Did you find a solution?

Ensure port forwarding is correctly configured on the ER605 router to forward port 32400 to the NAS IP (192.168.0.10). Double-check firewall settings.

I am having an issue where the remote play bandwith is capped at 10Mbps 1080p. Internally I am able to play in original quality. This was not an issue before the ER605 got set up.

  @RicardoVR I too am having this same issue. I have the ports set in Virtual Servers, plex shows as accessible, but any remote play goes through the relay.
