AX6000 NAT Loopback / Local Loopback / Hairpinning
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
How do I get NAT Loopback to work on the AX6000? (this is when you can access your port-forwarded ("virtual") servers from within the network - contacting www.mynetwork123.com will get you to the computer set up as the web server, even from inside your local network)
With my previous Archer router, I had to disable "NAT Booster" and it all worked. Don't see this setting. Oddly, *some* ports are looping back - I can use IMAP ports to get my mail from my mail server, but port 25 not looping back. Port 21 also not looping back. Is there a bell&whistle I have to disable to get this to work properly?

@ArcherC8 that is so strange. I am failing to get loopback - if I try doing FTP to my server using my domain name, it isn't being seen by the server. If I try sending mail using port 25, it fails.
You're reaching your cameras via port mapping (NAT/Virtual Servers)? Like you reach them with www.mydomain.com:202? (where 202 is the port # you mapped to the appropriate camera)

Where is NAT Boost? Disabling that is what did the trick for me with my old AC1200 TP-Link Router! I can't find that setting in here.

Solved most of it - a misconfigured email client caused my public IP to get banned, and some of the other smart devices had individual issues that weren't the fault of the router. But, FTP port 21 still only works from outside! What's odd is that if I map another port (ie external port 2100 -> FTP server port 21) it works both internally and externally.
