Setting up Port forwarding (Virtual Servers) on the ER707-M2

Model: General Product

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.3.0 Build 20250512 Rel.61917

Hello, My ER707-M2 is orward facing my ISP and I need help configuring my ER707 to use port forwarding (Virtual Servers) to allow devices in my 2.5 G LAN port2 to see the IP address of my ISP on 2.5g LAN port1, my services on LAN port 2 require the ability to obtain the public IP address, the error message I get is; The IP address from DDNS domain resolution is not the same as the WAN IP of the device. You need an Internet Public IP address to use Dynamic DNS. If this router is behind NAT, you may need to set up port forwarding on your ISP router. Are there any known issues with configuring port forwarding on the ER707-M2 I should be aware of?

Most probably that means you're behind ISP NAT. To be able to use virtual servers (port-forwarding) you need a public IP address on your ER707-M2 WAN port.

Go the WAN port status (facing your ISP) of your ER707-M2 and check its IP address.

If it's a private IP address then you're behind ISP NAT, hence the DDNS message.

If that's the case contact your ISP and ask them if you can get the public IP address on your ER707-M2.
