Amazon Fire TV not working
-
Well I think I need automatic for the IPsec, or not?
-
Automatic has screwed me more often than not. I don't use it anywhere.
I don't use ipsec though. Still I doubt seriously its required.
-
Tested it right now, manual - no traffic passes through IPsec. Automatic - it works fine :-\
-
Oh, forgot to create a manual outbound rule for the virtual network. Now IPsec works fine with manual outbound NAT. Let's see what the FireTV say's later at home. I think there is the problem, or that the connection isn't established. After disableing and enableing the firewall, I see at the states that there are many connections from the Fire TV established. After a while, they are not anymore and it's not working anymore.
EDIT: maybe it also is a multicast problem? Could that be? I dont have any rules for IGMP traffig.
-
OK, testet it now, and it's not working :(.
Why is it only working for a few minutes after checking "Disable all packet filtering." in the advanced firewall/nat and uncheck it again? Don't know whats happening there. The firewall logs alsways says the same and allowing the traffic.
-
Im not sure. I suspect its something particular to your configuration. You have several things configured on that router.
Are you blocking ANYTHING on the LAN?
Do you have a good allow-all rule?
When you "Disable packet filtering" you are turning off the firewall.
At that point it establishes a connection and works.
The connection once open is persistent even after firewall is enabled again.
Until it eventually dies sometime later.
So I'm wondering which rule is killing it?
-
Can you post your lan firewall rules?
-
The strange thing is, if I check the disable all packet filtering to disable the firewall, every client will lost his connection. So nobody can access anything anymore. After unchecking it, everything works fine.
Here are my LAN rules right now:

That's the allow all rule:

These are the UDP ports opend if it is working:

EDIT: hm, now it's not working anymore and the UDP connections still are established.
-
It's getting even stranger, if I try to watch a movie, sometimes it takes some minutes, but then it starts. So it seems to be very slow, but works?! :-[
EDIT: yes, if I can click to watch a trailer or film, it works now. But the menue dont works, and gets me errors. But after disable and reenable the firewall, also the menu works fast and fine.
-
Looks like you got carried away with your firewall rule set.
Looks abit over complicated.
I'm pretty sure this is a self inflicted issue.
-
Maybe there is a problem in the NAT configuration? I ask myself why everything works, also TV's but not the FireTV in the menu. The menu is too slow, but streaming works well if I get the chance to see the "play" button.
-
OK, I deleted all my Firewall Rules, all my NAT forwards and outbounds, but it still don't works.
Now I made a factory default reset and it works! But why the hell, what is different? -
OMG, think I got it ;D. On WAN interface was a manual (wrong) MTU set, after deleting it works till now with my old config!
-
I'm glad its all good now. (-:
So nothing special required. Thats actually good news.
-
Yes, it is :)
