We just moved and have a new combo modem/wireless router (actiontec C1000A). I notice that my portal will not allow me to control my tank settings. My reef angel wifi has a ip of 192.168.0.8 and is set up for a static ip, and port fwd of port 2000. I am able to control the reef angel from 192.168.0.8:2000/wifi.
when i use http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ it shows the port as closed
I am not sure what the problem is from here. Any ideas?

When you check port 2000, does it say open?

it said closed, i am very sure its a port forwarding problem but not sure what to check because the modem/ wifi router says the port is open.

It says remote ip 0.0.0.0
Maybe you should choose the specific option?
