[Solved] I'm apparently unable to port forward...
-
nothing... just a media converter (fiber>ethernet) and it's "bridged" by default..
that website can't ping me, but that one friend on another city can, but he can't access my website..
-
I also tried using things like "free proxy" to access the website (hosted on 8889) but didn't worked.
-
First step into troubleshooting is SNIFF!!! IF the traffic doesn't get to pfsense wan it is IMPOSSIBLE for it to be forwarded..
PM me your wan IP and I will attempt ping
-
what do you mean by sniff?
-
Packet capture under diagnostics - I posted example above of hitting 8889 to my IP.
-
here
Start the capture - then use like can you see me to that port... Do you see the traffic??
-
-
So if NOTHING gets to your wan - how could pfsense ever forward it??
Pfsense can not forward what it doesn't see - pfsense has ZERO control of traffic getting to its wan.. You need to look upstream
-
I don't know, dude.. I don't know what's happening
-
Get with your ISP on why your not seeing that traffic.. Pfsense can NOT forward what it doesn't see!! Its that simple..
-
@ninom4ster said in I'm apparently unable to port forward...:
that website can't ping me, but that one friend on another city can, but he can't access my website..
PM me your IP... I will setup a ping to your IP... Lets see if you answer. If does or doesn't even you can sniff while doing it.
-
I already called them. they're not blocking anything. and as I said, it works perfectly with my Mikrotik. (with the exact same ports open)
-
Well they are lying or don't understand what your asking... If you sniff and there is nothing there for that port - then pfsense can never forward traffic that doesn't get to it!!
I have ping going - and NOTING.
PM you my IP.. Sniff for it..
-
Get a ping going to my IP... And will validate your coming from that IP..
keep it running with -t if windows...
-
I also "sniffed" the port 80, because that's where the web page is hosted on, locally..
internet > TCP 8889 (WAN) > NAT > TCP 80 192.168.10.6 (my webserver)
-
doesn't matter what you listen on locally!!! If it never gets to your wan then it can not forward it - PERIOD!!! Not rocket science here ;)
Are you pinging me

Seem you got ISP issues...
Run your continue ping -- while I sniff... And show you that I am answering..
-
here - I am answering you!!! IF you not getting it that is on your ISP..
-
I'm gonna shutdown pfSense and switch to Mikrotik to try something..
