    OpenVPN Client - Extra-Certs (certificate) - Update Required - Workaround

    FTP Server Issue RT-AC87U

    Thanks for your reply. I did consider that it might be permissions, but the volume is set as "owners enabled = no" and thus my understanding is that the router should ignore the ownership / permissions... and in any case the router sets its own permissions.

    Trying to open / forward port 445 on AC87U with 3.0.0.4_378.50_0

    Thank you very much for all your replies so far. OK... but how do you port forward? From which external port to which internal port (although i guess the internal port must be 445). I attach a copy of my port forwarding log. To answer your question, I have tried with Mac OS X Finder...
