If the WAN IP address of the Deco is not a public IP address but a private IP address, that means there is another NAT device connected to the WAN Port of the main Deco, and you need to open the service ports on that device as well.įor how to verify whether the IP Address is a public one or a private one, please refer to this link:ĥ. Now you can try to use WAN IP:Port Number (External Port) to access the service from the outside network. Go to the More> Internet Connection> IPv4 page to check the WAN IP address of the Deco system. In a normal case, if a device connects to Deco and gets an IP address, Deco will show the device when configuring the port forwarding feature.Ĥ. Note: Deco does not support the feature of entering the Internal IP address manually. For example, set up the External Port as 4500 and leave the Internal Port blank, then tap Save, and the internal port 4500 is opened. If you leave the Internal Port blank, the internal ports will be the same as the external ones. Choose a Service Type, type in the Service Name, and tap Internal IP to select a device you want to open ports for, then type in the External Port and Internal Port (Service Port), then click on Save to add a port forwarding rule. Tap + icon at the upper right corner or click on Add Port Forwarding Rule to add a rule.ģ. Launch the Deco app, tap More-> Advanced-> NAT Forwarding-> Port Forwarding.Ģ. But don’t worry since they will support up to 64 entries in the future via firmware updates.ġ. Note: Currently, some Deco models only support 16 port forwarding entries. Please verify the service port number before the configuration. Port Forwarding allows you to make a device or service on your local network accessible by other devices over the internet, whilst ensuring your network remains protected.ĭifferent services use different service ports, such as Port 80 for HTTP service, port 21 for FTP service, port 25 for SMTP service, and port 110 for POP3 service.
