Issue Description/Phenomenon

 

Recently we received feedback about ER8411 NAT - Virtual Server or UPnP not working issue, the issue may manifest as follows:

 

Topology & Setup

Internet --- ER8411 Router --- Xbox or PS5, Server (ex. 3CX VoIP server)

 

Issues

  • With UPnP enabled on ER8411, the NAT Type on the Xbox (or Playstation 5) is still detected as Strict NAT (or Type 3), which results in the failure of online multiplayer games.
  • With a range of ports forwarding configured on the ER8411 for the connected server, the internal and external ports mappings do not match as expected, which results in the failure of getting the right access to the server.

  @Fae 

nice that online game issue and port forward is fixed , but are there any plans to fix all the VPN issues on these devices?

I have reported this in November 2022 but nothing has happened yet. is there a time schedule for this?

As I know, the 1.0.3 firmware has already fixed all the VPN issues located by the developer team.

 

If you still have issues with the VPN and it has affected the actual usage, I'd still encourage you to try further troubleshooting with our engineers, please feel free to let me know if I can be of any further assistance here.

  @Fae 

OK Thanks, Please forward this message to the engineers who work with this routers.

 

The VPN problem is not fixed, I have mentioned this so many times on the forum, I have also had email support with tp-link support, now it has been 6 months and the tp-link engineers have not yet been notified of the problem, very scary.

 

Here is someone who has the same problem as me, luckily I was able to help the person with the problem.

 

PLS read, this is what we have problem with. OpenVPN and SSL VPN with IPsec VPN

Please allow me to confirm the detailed firmware version you are using.

Are you using the ER8411(UN)_V1_1.0.3 Build 20230411 (Beta) firmware provided in this thread?

 VPN really doesn't work right with er-8411, cant use openvpn client over 2.5.8. nat doesn't really work. ssl-vpn is screwy.  TP-Link should be ashamed of themselves for designating the 8411 as a business product. it needs a lot of work. I bought a sonicwall tz270 and it just works out of the box after configuration. no bs. So to eBay with the 8411 and I'll have serious reservations about purchasing any tp-link "business" product in the future
