acces to wan from internet

[Nesalex]

Hello

Yes, I know it's not safe, but I need it.

I have a WAN access problem when connecting remotely. I've been working on my RT-AC68U at 384.19 for a week now and everything worked fine. I have a VPN client where I have defined rules and everything worked well. I can't connect to the WAN from the internet right now.

1. Restart the router - NOK
2. I turned off the VPN client - NOK
3. at http://iplookup.asus.com/nslookup.php my IP address is correct - OK
4. I tried entering an address in the form XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:XXXX NOK
5. Connect via Asus NOK

I don't want to give the factory settings and reset everything again. Can anyone please advise me what else I could try? THX

So all this worked fine for quite some time, and now, boom, it suddenly doesn't work. And you've made no other changes.

I would check to see if perhaps your ISP has placed you behind a private IP or CGNAT. I know some ISPs will jump back and forth between public and private IPs, presumably using the latter when running low on available public IPs.

Well, all I did was add games - open ports - play games for my son.

But I don't think it could affect my connection - maybe I'm not right.

And for B I see my WAN IP address via whats my IP as a public IP address ..

So now it works but what could have helped after restarting the router?

I turned off game mode
I canceled the opening of the game ports
Disabled LAN access over the WAN
That is probably all ...

Currently access works I try to gradually turn it on

Well if your games are using UPnP to open their own ports, those *may* conflict w/ the ports you need to use w/ your own remote access.

That looks like a USB drive error (NTFS), which I don't see as being related.
