Hello,
Device: RT-AC5300
Firmware: 384.19
For a couple of days, I've been trying with limited success. At the end, I would like to ask help from the super nice community here.
I have been trying to connect the NTP server on my router with my bridged DSL modem.
DSL modem is in bridge mode and connected to WAN port of AC5300.
On the WAN side, router gets static ip:
192.168.0.2
and the modem gets 192.168.0.1
Now,
Asus-merlin has a NTP server built-in with UDP port 123.
So, in theory, if you set modem NTP settings to remote server with the "static ip of the router (192.168.0.2)" and arrange the router to port forward "external udp port 123" coming from "modem static ip (192.168.0.1)" to "internal udp port 123 of the router local ip should work.
However, I couldn't get it to work. I also tried disabling and enabling firewall.
The thing that confuses me is I set-up a NTP server on my network with a different device with LAN ip, and I managed to get it to work by port forwarding to that device.
This is the working setup.
But if I change internal ip address to 192.168.1.1, it fails.
and this is my interface output:
I am thinking maybe firmware is blocking incoming connections from WAN.
