Diagnostic failures and port forwarding
Region : UnitedKingdom
Model : TD-W8980
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version :
ISP : Orange
Sorry but just changed from many years of Netgear routers to a TP-Link N600 TD-W8980 dual band router and wow even as someone who works in IT and does charity web designs this has been difficult to set up. Main problem is how to set up Port Forwarding for a YCAM camera as I cannot see where to do this having read the manual. 2nd problem is that the diagnostics have shown up two failures - 1. Test DNS Route - fail and 2. Ping Primary DNS - fail.
BTW I googled the port forwarding issue and the guide there for this router looks nothing like my Router Admin ie it says go to Advanced Set up which I do not have.
Any help would be really appreciated. Regards Nigel
