That all makes sense. Thanks for the reply. It would be useful to have a separate control to disable NAT helper. I haven't used it in a while but there are definite problems with ASUS' SIP implementation.
Thanks

Hi
I've noticed in recent builds setting SIP ALG off adds an iptables rule that blocks UDP SIP. See my post: http://www.snbforums.com/threads/issue-with-sip-nat-passthrough-disabled.30761/
I think this is a bug.
I have to manually delete the entry to allow SIP through the router.

Hi
I upgraded to 380.57 and I notice a change in behaviour which I don't think is correct.
Disabling SIP Passthrough in WAN > NAT Passthrough causes an iptables rule to be added to the FORWARD chain which blocks UDP SIP:
Chain FORWARD (policy DROP)

I'm trying to setup a VPN and route it via a specific SSID using this guide:

Hi
I can connect to a VPN using the Openvpn client in the GUI with a .ovpn file from my provider.

Most important thing is it works.
Thank you very much!
Hi
This is probably something really simple....any rules I add to iptables are having no effect.
The firewall is activated in the GUI, I can't get iptables status from the shell. 'service iptables' just says 'Done'
Here's an example rule I added to attempt to drop all traffic from a Polycom...
