Port Forwarding not working.

Post by BTr »

Guys, hello! First post here.

I'm using Gargoyle 1.10 on my Archer C7 V2 (clean installation), apparently after setting it up everything was 100%, but it looks like Port Forwarding is not working at all. All individual ports and ranges that I opened appear as closed when tested. Any light? Apparently everything is fine in settings, I do not know what to do. I need that ports.

I´m trying these 3 sites to test the ports:

yougetsignal
portchecker
canyouseeme

I did a test using UPnP. In this test i opened a UPnP port in QbitTorrent and the test was ok, so i suppose it´s working. But setting manually doesn't.

Please help me here, thanks

Do you have another modem or router in front of Gargoyle? If so, you’ll need to forward there as well, or put Gargoyle in a DMZ.

Otherwise, please share more information about your setup.

My setup is simple. The VDSL modem connected in Archer C7 (modem is in bridge mode). I have a powerline adapter connected to it too, as a repeater.

I set the PS4 IP in DMZ . All of gadgets are using static IPs set in DHCP.

You also need to have something on the other end listening, or your OS firewall is likely going to just silently drop the packet by default.

For example, i have a particular port open, but it shows as closed on all 3 of the sites you mentioned.
When i fire up sscom to listen on the particular port, it shows as open.

Veja se realmente seu modem esta em bridge, pois ja tive problemas com a Vivo parecido com este usando um C7 e a causa era o equipamento do ISP.

See if your modem is actually in bridge, because I already had problems with Vivo similar to this using a C7 and the cause was the equipment of the ISP.

I'm sure it is.
Router is doing PPPoE authentication, i even disabled the Vivo's Powerbox wi-fi.

The strange thing is that opening ports via uPnP are working ok.

I have deactivated uPnP and DMZ to see If one of these services are giving troubles, but nothing.

I dont know what to do anymore...

Did you read what I suggested? I expect it is working fine.
