Title: UPnP Port Forwarding
Post by: dougb on January 15, 2019, 08:24:02 PM: According to my Netgear Orbi router, my DNR-312L is configuring port forwarding rules to forward port external 80 to internal port 80 on the DNR-312L, and external port 443 to internal port 443 on the DNR-312L. From looking at the configuration, there is nothing about UPnP, so apparently I cannot disable this. I don't think it's a good idea to have port 80 and port 443 open on my router, as I believe that will result in hackers wondering what else they might be able to get to, drawing unwanted attention to my IP address.

I really don't like my DNR-312L being accessible like this, so I'm wondering if its possible to disable this port forwarding, beyond disabling UPnP on the router altogether. Any assistance is appreciated!

If you don't need anything from the WAN side you can try this on your router for the DNR:

So, we have it for more then 2 years, it allways worked fine. Recently I noticed that I can't connect to device remotely. So I checked network settings (network setup), and there's missing gateway. When I input it, it seems that DNR saves settings, but when I get back to same tab, field is empty, and DNS is set as default gateway?

What should be done? Current fw version 1.07.10

I know that. Router is on the same address at it was when it worked fine... Just I can't remember, do I have to enable some port forwarding on my router to make DNR access to internet? Or it has access by it self?

Thank you.

Post by: ZeljkoM on May 17, 2019, 11:08:18 PM: Yes, that's what I remember...

Please see this settings: https://imgur.com/lbRBztE

There's missing Default gateway. Problem is : every time I input it and click SAVE, it moves to DNS position??

Why? When I try to register device at my dlink web page, it says that my device has no access to internet (logical).

Thank you.

Post by: FurryNutz on May 20, 2019, 06:26:49 AM: What browser are you using?
Try FF, IE11 or Opera to make changes to the gateway address.

Possible a reset on the DNR and setup from scratch maybe needed.

Post by: ZeljkoM on May 20, 2019, 08:06:11 AM: Thanks for suggestion. Actually, I noticed long time ago that DNR works correctly only with IE. So I used only it. Now I tried, it's imposiblle to do anything with Mozilla FF or Google Chrome.

With Opera I could do all the same as with IE 11. And the result is the same. It couldn't save gateway I input :/

Post by: FurryNutz on May 20, 2019, 08:12:23 AM: Does 192.168.0.1 work by chance?

Try a factory reset and setup from scratch?
Title: Re: UPnP Port Forwarding
Post by: ZeljkoM on May 21, 2019, 06:46:42 AM: I tried factory reset once. Without success.

If I change Default gateway to 0.1 I'm not sure how will this help. My DG is at 0.11 for more then 10 yeras, all devices are configured according to it.

However, I just discovered that, when I disable PPPoE, I can input Default gateway?

But in that case I can't access to NVR remotely anyway :/

Title: Re: UPnP Port Forwarding
Post by: ZeljkoM on May 23, 2019, 07:38:13 AM: It was enabled earlier. How to access remotely if I disable it?

Post by: FurryNutz on May 23, 2019, 07:56:48 AM: Should maybe able to make use of the mydlink, mydlink view or maybe mydlink cloud apps if you have associated the 312L with mydlink.com.
