Hello all.

I've tried to block ICMP requests (Respond to Pings from LAN/WAN on Security tab) from WAN, but it works just for option LAN. When block LAN requests is on, none interface responds to ICMP packets. WAN setting does not matter. Have you encountered this behaviour?

Hi  @TomekM 

To locate your issue, could you please help us collect the following information:

1. Do you want to let the router not respond to ping requests from the internet?

2. When you block the ‘Respond to Pings from WAN’, can you save it successfully? How did you test that this option didn't take effect?

3. May I know if your network topology diagram is as follows:

ISP modem—router)))((( client devices

(Note: — stands for wired connection,)))((( stands for wireless connection )
