Model: Range Extender  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I'm trying to switch my Surveillance NVR from a wired connection through a D-Link Powerline AV2 2000 to now be wired into a TP-Link AC1200 WiFi Extender RE315.  On the powerline kit, I had no issues connecting to the NVR either within network or externally.  However now with the Extender, I can only get a connection while within the same network.  Switching my phone from wifi to phone service I am unable to get a connection.  Hooking up my laptop to the ethernet cable shows the extender does provide a valid connection to the internet.  So I figured it was a port forwarding issue, but I opened all possible ports that the sw uses.  NVR software shows it is configured for only 85 and 9000, but manufacturer (Swann) says all of the below are possible, so I opened all of them to the NVR client. The forwarding doesn't help anything.  I don't know what else to try or where to look.  I looked in the System Log hoping it would show some kind of rejection message when attempting to open the cameras, but nothing ever comes up.5be32b80e4d44cc8bdecbb5c14340d7e

  @netshark Do you think this has something to do with the virtualized MAC address that REs create for client devices?  (The article gives directions for MAC filtering but also gives insight into WDS Mode, which passes clients true MAC address).
