April 28, 20215 yr I've been trying to change the WAN Port to Allow Remote Access. I've selected a port and hit Apply, then in my router's settings setup corresponding custom service with the external port number the same as the WAN Port in Unraid, and the Triggering port as the original port number in Unraid before i made any changes. No dice. When I hit the Check button the pop up tells me that the server is unreachable from the outside. Is anyone here familiar with TP-Link's GUI?
April 28, 20215 yr Does your modem also have a router built-in? (Most do). In which you you are double NAT'ed and need to put the TP-Link into the Modem's DMZ (or put the Modem into Bridge mode)
April 28, 20215 yr Author Yes, it has a router. What is a 'double NAT'. And what do you mean by 'the TP-Link'?
April 28, 20215 yr 4 minutes ago, encinoman said: And what do you mean by 'the TP-Link'? Your router that you're trying to get to work... You need to login into your modem. And then put the TP-Link router into the modem's DMZ. That way all ports are forwarded to the router from the modem, and then you can do port forwarding from the router. As it stands now, you don't have any ports forwarded from the modem, so nothing ever gets to the router for it to forward.
