Port Forwarding not working Sky Q Router

b1nuzz

Hi all,

Can anyone shed some light as to why the settings in the screenshot are not allowing the ports to be open?

80 and 20/21 are reporting back as open.
All the others are reporting back as closed! HELP!


TIA

Your outbound 80/20/21 rules are unnecessary as the default outbound rule lets everything out. (Most SOHO routers behave this way by default.)

The inbound rules look fine - we may have to pick apart what's not working rule by rule and see where the problem is. What's not working, what are the symptoms and can you describe how you are testing.

Incidentally, you have HTTP and HTTPS targetted at different hosts - is that deliberate or a mistake..?

Thanks.
I have tidied the rules up a bit. See attached.
I have access to my NAS which is at 0.31
I don't have access to my CCTV which is at 0.160.

When I use yougetsignal, it reports that all the CCTV ports are closed and the NAS ports are open.
As a side note, when I visit myip:80 it reroutes to :8080 which is the HTTP port of my NAS.
The HTTP port of my CCTV is 90, but when I visit myip:90, I get nothing.

I can't figure it out.

How are you visiting your IP?  If it reroutes to 8080 and still allows you in, then it suggests there is a rule misconfiguration as you don't appear to have that rule set.

Can you access the port 90 from a machine on your LAN ?

There’s no issue with local access. Just external.

If I visit my NAS IP address from the LAN without putting any port after the address, it auto redirects me to :8080 in the same way it does if I visit it externally.

However when I access the CCTV internally without putting the port, it just fails.

I don’t know why one does one thing, and the other another.

ChuckMountain

Port 80 is the default port for websites and so will access it directly any redirect will then work properly.  90 is not the default port so that's the reason it doesn't connect.

Can you get a screenshot of the services setup which should list what ports they are assigned as that might be the issue.

The attached?
Thanks

This bothers me as according to your own rules you don't allow 8080 so how are you accessing your network?  Are you using a 4G connection on your mobile?

b1nuzz

Yes, using 4G and my external IP, and i have a DDNS set up as well.

Yeah, it’s very odd. As far as I can tell, none of my rules work, but somehow 8080 is open.
