    Asus RT-AX88U Closed Ports vs. Stealth

    Just to follow up, after suddenly having connection issues with my VPN and chatting with the support, I was given 10 new servers to try out. As soon as I connected to the VPN, the ports were closed again. This was after a perfect stealth score when not connected to the VPN. So it's Nord VPN that...

    Asus RT-AX88U Closed Ports vs. Stealth

    Nope, still blocked when outside the VPN, and after running your scripts. I guess it is Spectrum, even though they don't list 89 or 90 as ports they block. Again, thank you both, ColinTaylor and eibgrad. You guys are very much appreciated. Your depth of knowledge is astounding! Thank you for...

    Asus RT-AX88U Closed Ports vs. Stealth

    Thank you eibgrad. Although I have the least possible understanding of the results, I see that the packets column is 0 for ports 0 through 1023. I am going to put this system outside the VPN and see if it is them who are blocking those ports. I do hope that is the case, as I have no other...

    okay, awesome. Thanks again for your time and expertise. Might you have any other suggestions on why these ports are behaving this way?

    I looked through the other output it produced, and did not see either port listed in any of it. So I assume this means it is not a configuration issue in my router?

    Okay, your instructions are working perfectly. Thank you so much. The console out put this line when ran the second line of code you provided: :OUTPUT ACCEPT [275:21890] Please forgive my ignorance. Are these ports or something else? I do not know what to make of it.

    Asus RT-AX88U Closed Ports vs. Stealth

    Wow, it worked this time! I tried the exact same thing before... Okay, so next likely idiotic question: the code you posted above : netstat -nlp | egrep ":89 |:90 " iptables-save -t nat | egrep "89|90" Can I just copy it verbatim into the console? Are the I in the lines supposed to be included...

    The cursor doesn't move at all. You're saying this is expected behavior?

    Asus RT-AX88U Closed Ports vs. Stealth

    It is. Have tried password and no password. Funny thing is, the prompt asks for a password, but when I hit the keys to enter the password, no text appears in the field. Can't paste it in, either. As I said, I am a total noob at SSH and such. Never knew about it. In fact, I know nothing about...

    Asus RT-AX88U Closed Ports vs. Stealth

    Thank you so much for your time and help. I am completely new to SSH to the router, and am having some difficulty in logging in via SSH. I am using Kitty, but am still having trouble. I'm going to keep at it though.

    Asus RT-AX88U Closed Ports vs. Stealth

    After looking into your comment, I checked with spectrum (my ISP) on what ports they block. Neither of the 2 ports I mentioned are on that list of blocked ports. Now I am determined to get to the bottom of this! LOL Again, thank you for the input!

    Asus RT-AX88U Closed Ports vs. Stealth

    Thank you for the reply. I have not knowingly opened or changed ANY port settings in the router. I have all port forwarding/dmz, etc disabled. No need for any of it. Forgive me if this is an elementary question, but how could my ISP be blocking the ports if I am using VPN? Isn't my traffic...

    Asus RT-AX88U Closed Ports vs. Stealth

    Greetings once again. I have been going to GRC's Shields Up site for many years, but had not been there in some time, until recently. I run the full scan, and nowadays, ports 89 and 90 are listed as closed, instead of Stealth, which is not how I want the router to behave. Port 89 is named...
