Smart Hub 7 Plus Port Forwarding Issue

Hi All,

Another Issue with the Hub 7 Plus, probably on others too.

When i create a Port forwarding rule, it always comes up with an error and doesn't save or eventually when it does save, it has created duplicate rules. Try to remove one and it removes both, aaarrrgghh! These EE hub are very frustrating.

I hope someone who can help sees this and my other post, to help fix these issues.

Hi, I've tried it with port 20 and still same issue.  But I have not tried forward port 100:100 (external) to port 21:21 (internal). I'm planning to plug my EE Hub 7 Plus next week and have another play. Its funny... some of the ports were created between the WD cloud and the EE Hub 7 Plus and those are open.  Yet the ones I create manully don't.  Confusing!   With DMZ enabled port 21 works. 

Why is that? 

Makes me think there is some logic issues in the firmware.

If upnp works, you could try manually creating port  rule

On Ubuntu or Debian-based systems, install the miniupnpc package, which provides the upnpc command-line tool.
