Port forwarding with a PPPoE WAN connection
Hello, guys.
If someone can please help me on a port forwarding configuration on this model I would appreciate it.
I have a WAN connection from my ISP which when connected it gives me the ip 86.126.103.208 but when checking on showmyip or on an open port check website it gave me the IP: 100.90.148.109.
What I need is to port forward on my static IP address on my laptop the port 12392 which will allow a better connection for qortal app.
I have contacted my ISP and they indicate to login on my ISP account and to activate DDNS and choose a name for it and activate it which I did and is qortal.go.ro and they than said it was correctly activated and it responds to ping which I have checked and indeed it does responds to PING.
After I did the DDNS activation, the IP 100.90.148.109 id not shown anymore on mmy WAN status connection and instead, now it shows the 86.126.103.208 IP.
On my windows 10 laptop, I have already added a rule in the firewall to allow that port, to make sure it is allowed.
I entered on the router management interface, and I have checked the DDNS and it says that I am connected and it's activated (Status - successful).
When checking the port on https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ it says it is closed.
I am already struggling for 2 days now, with no success.
NOTE: The specs for the router are the following:
Firmware version: | 3.16.9 Build 150821 Rel.45266n |
Hardware version: | WR841N v11 00000000 |
Thank you for taking the time to read through my post.
