        @dark_prophet you covered the last octet, but I got it from the ip you talked to the forum from.. As mod I can see that.

        I had to assume that was your IP, since the first 3 octets matched.

        So you still don't see any evaluations on that rule - shows 0/0 then yeah something is wrong.. You sure you have no rules in floating... You sure your rules reloaded after changing say floating - you say you removed stuff.. Do a reload of your filters..

            do a reload

            Did you copy and paste any rules - there was some issue going around where rules that were copied got the same ID..

                  @dark_prophet that rule on your main_vlan with destination 2302 is pointless.

                  And you send traffic to that port from can you see me, and the counter never goes up.. But you say you see it on a wan sniff to that port..

                  Can you post your port forwards, do you have something that would trigger on that port other than matching up with this firewall is what I am looking for.

                  You let your port forward create the firewall rule..

                    i have created some firewall rules and some were created by windows firewall when i uninstall my antivirus

                      do you of any app i can download that can listen on a specific port and try it out just to see
                      cause is just crazy that Plex works with no problem . seems like the problem here is that my PC and windows firewall are not listening on that port at all?

                        @dark_prophet the firewall rules on the destination have nothing to do with seeing if pfsense sends the traffic on.

                        But if you send traffic to that port, and the firewall rule to allow it never goes up from 0/0 then your port forward is not triggering.. For that firewall rule to allow the traffic.

                        So you maybe have a port forward that includes that port that sends it to a different firewall rule?

                        PC and windows firewall are not listening on that port at all?

                        Has zero to do with the destination device listening or having it firewalled.. If your port forward triggers and pfsense sends the traffic on - has nothing to do with if your device actually listening on that port..

                        You would see the traffic get sent on when you sniff on the main_vlan interface and send a test from outside.. But clearly something is not working for pfsense to send it on, because the firewall rule that allows the traffic from the port forward is never being triggered.. Its staying at 0/0

                        Please post up all your port forwards, like this..

                        allofthem.jpg

                        And you have NOTHING in floating.

                                  @dark_prophet these port forwards are not linked to firewall rules

                                  notlinked.jpg

                                  Did you redo them and now they show the linked to firewall rule?

                                  if you show pfsense sending the traffic to the destination IP when you sniff on the main_vlan interface and send test traffic - then the issue is with the destination.

                                    @dark_prophet said in PortForward Not woking no matter what i do:

                                    nothing on LAN

                                    Your never going to see anything on lan if your sending to an IP on main_vlan

                                        touched what?? When you create a port forward it will auto create the firewall rule to allow the traffic. Unless you tell it not too. Or you delete the firewall rule.

                                        Those port forwards are not linked to any firewall rule.

                                            @dark_prophet delete it.. And create it again... And when you create it at the bottom you will see this

                                            add.jpg

                                            This is the default.
