Model: Archer C7  
Hardware Version: V5
Firmware Version: 1.2.1 Build 20220715 rel 19099

I am trying to open a port on my router (port 21) so I can access my NAS via the internet. 

 

For some reason the port does not open. Testing via tools like yougetsignal keep showing my port as closed. 

 

The NATforwarding setting for port 21 have been added, but still nothing happens. 

 

What am I missing? 

 

Kind regards

 

Erik
