Port Forwarding

Evening all,

 

I have been advised to forward my ports in relation to a Eufy Homebase 2 to establish a better connection with the Eufy doorbell.

I was advised to change to the below

TCP port 80, 443 and UDP port 65535.

Can anyone advise how I change to this? I have gone into admin, firewall, create rule but then it says internal and external with a start and end for both?

Thank you for any advice.

For single ports you usually  put the External = the Internal. So you would have 3 rules:

  • External  Internal TCP/UDP
  •       80             80          TCP
  •      443           443        TCP
  •  65535        65535     UDP

I  v. much doubt you need 80 & 443. They are into the router itself. A doorbell shouldn't need any incoming ports open. Who told you that?

On which router?
