Portal Test Open But Still have unreachable address

Post by Chef Rob »

I set up my portal forwarding and tested it and portal 2000 is open. When I go to portal page it says unreachable address. I can get RA info on app but its unreachable on portal page. Can anyone help.

Are you using this ip address on your phone?
Does the portal also show this ip address?

I was using the RA's IP. I changed it to my phone and that didn't work either. Now port is saying closed. It was open when I was using RA Ip. Not sure what to do next.

You need to use your WAN ip address when you are outside your wifi.
The WAN ip address is provided to you by your Internet provider.
Usually this ip address changes whenever your internet provider decides it needs to change.
Most people setup dynamic DNS to avoid this problem from happening, but that's something for next step.
I can't see any data with your username. Can you post your code?

Oh, now that makes sense...
Create a code with the wizard and make sure to select wifi attachment and make sure that you put your forum username when asked.
