AX5400 (Archer AX73) port forwarding not working (nat loopback hairpinning reflection)

Model: Archer AX73

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.2.1 Build 20230626 rel.36899(4555)

I moved from a rock space router to an AX5400 and have port forwarding set up on the ISP-supplied and TP-Link router. This worked fine with the rock space router but does not work with the AX5400. This may have to do with nat loopback not being setup (aka hairpinning aka reflection). How do I set this up on the router?

How do I get this setup?

Hi, NAT Loopback is supported and enabled by default on the Archer AX73, please provide us with the detailed network topology with IP address of each device and also your port forwarding settings for troubleshooting.
