Port Forwarding is not working

[guandms]

Hi

Hi all im new to this firmware , i know my way in the router a little bit and i just cant get the Plex Media Server to work with this firmware .
On the regular TP-Link its working right away .
My router model is TL-WR1043ND , i put it on DMZ but still the Plex is refusing to work .
Can you please help me out .
P.S the UpnP option is also enabled and no matter which port im changing its closed ...

Why use DMZ. Just use Individual Port Forwarding. I use port 32400 in Plex Media Server.

<NAME> - TCP - 32400 - <LAN IP> - 32400.

Or did you already tried that? If not, please be more specific with your problem description.

I already tried that , usually DMZ opens your ports all together , isn't it ?
I tried everything but couldn't get the Plex to work ...
Can you give me another advise what to do ? ...

Reflash. Upnp seems broken, but like the other poster,port forwarding works.

I can confirm that the DMZ doesn't work, even after a new install. I have the DMZ host set to a static IP and I successfully connect to its local IP from within the network. But I cannot connect to it via the remote DNS host which forwards back to us. To make that work I need to manually set Gargoyle to forward the port (which the DMZ should be doing already).

What versions of Gargoyle?
