443 port - blocked in my country

[alhatmy]

Hello, is it possible to change the default secure port 443? Neither the remote connection nor the flash backup are possible. It's likely because port 443 is blocked; if it's possible to change it, please tell me how.

Close that dialog box and you will see the "WAN Port" setting. We highly recommend you choose something other than 443. For more detailed instructions on setting up remote access see https://wiki.unraid.net/My_Servers#Configuring_Remote_Access_.28optional.29

 

Flash Backup is unrelated Remote Access. There are currently some issues, here are more details: https://forums.unraid.net/topic/128043-my-servers-will-not-do-flash-backup/#comment-1167192

Thank you, but I've already followed every step.. I'm certain it has to do with 443 being blocked by the ISP.

You shouldn't be using 443. Do you mean your ISP won't allow you to forward ports, or do you mean you don't know how?

I don't know how to make it work. It has something to do with blocked ports.

On the Settings -> Management Access page, the HTTP and HTTPS ports are used for Local Access to the webgui when you are on your LAN.  The WAN Port is used for Remote Access.

 

Adjust your Unraid settings like this:

* HTTP port defaults to 80, this works on most systems
* HTTPS port defaults to 443, this works on most systems (unless you have Docker containers that you want to run on port 443, if so choose something else here)
* WAN port, use something other than 443, such as 13856

 

Then for your port forward router config:

* External Port : 13856 (or whatever you chose for WAN port above)

* Internal Port: 443 (or whatever you chose for HTTPS port above)

I think it is likely you'll need to contact your ISP for help with the port forward. But there is one last thing we can check... open a web terminal and type:

php /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix/include/UpdateDNS.php -v

then post the results here (they are anonymized)

This anonymized line shows that DDNS for your Remote Access url is working properly. The issue is with the port forward, I recommend that you contact your ISP.

@alhatmy

I'm in your same country and I can access remotely.

Basically  you have 2 options:

Call Etisalat  and ask to open the port and they'll tell you you need to pay a static ip.

 

Or

 

Use a cloudflare  tunnel

Thanks!
When I called Etisalat, they were clueless about the static IP (perhaps because it's reserved for business accounts only?). What is the specific name of the service you're referring to?

As of cloudflare, what links/ports must include please ?

@alhatmy

Good day. I used to have etisaltat but I've since moved to du, because regrettably it's not available in my community. However until a year ago I was using etisalat and 443 wasnt blocked. Have you verified the port is indeed closed? use something like portchecker.com to confirm.
