Sounds like you have the information that D-Link provided to you.

Thank you for sharing this information.

The above two responses from DLINK sound to me like:
          - We made it work like this and no matter how wrong it is, it is going to stay like that because that is how we made it.
            Now, let me explain to you my misunderstanding of the topic.

Some light at the end of the tunnel:

I think you are asking about changing current design on DIR-868L, and we cannot make decision for that.

If you want to change the current design, and I would recommend you to contact to our PP XXXXXXXX

Thanks for the feed back.

What do you think of the next reply:

That’s strange request and the behavior of guest zone is implemented for many years. Do you think that’s a wrong behavior? And need to satisfy one people to change it? As I know, if don’t enable “routing between zones”, user can’t access LAN server through WAN port, but it still can access internet normally. For this NAT loopback, user set up “disable routing between zone” that is for privacy and security, if guest can access LAN devices through WAN that will be a bug and have security concern. Please let me know what application the customer do for guest access WAN. And also confirm the remote management is enabled.

Hi,

I've exactly the same issue : We now are at last two ! 

I've meany webservers and other services like cloud sharing reachable from internet (using virtual server feature).
I'm only using mac computers at home, connected to a server with shared folders only available thru afp protocol. Other protocols like smb or CIFS are disabled (I hope that's actual).

My daughter got from his highschool a free notebook pc. I don't manage it. She has all the rights (admin) on her system. She can connect her pc to my server from her highschool via https protocol.
When she's at home, she connects her pc to the internet via the GZ. I disabled routing between both lans (192.168.7.0 and 192.168.1.0) to prevent any ransomware that could encrypt the content of my local server.

Everything runs fine but accessing to the server via the https protocol with the pc. It's possible from the highschool and not at home !

I tried to create a rule in the iptable that redirects all traffic from the GZ (192.168.7.0/24 lan) to the wan side (to my wan ip number) but I perhaps set up a wrong rule and I completly blocked the router. I've to reset it to factory defaults and restore my configuration to get it working again.

I opened a ticket on dlink's support website but I only got the user manual as answer.

If someone has the solution, it would be great !!

Thanks a lot.

If this PC is tin the Guest Zone and it want to connect to a local server on the LAN side, then the PC should be connected to the LAN side part of the network with this server on it. Not in the Guest Zone as the GZ doesn't allow for LAN side access while in the GZ.

FYI, this router is EOL so to much if any support will be given by D-Link anymore for this router.

[speedy67]

This PC is on the GZ because I don't want it access to other ressources on the LAN, only the one what are reachable from the internet.

Might see if there is a featured called Local LAN Isolation or Local LAN accessibility from the Guest Zone side. I remember some routers had this feature. I don't remember if the 868L did or not.
