[Solved] I'm apparently unable to port forward...
-
@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..
-
And your IP will change! Or you MAC will change - etc etc..
What part do you NOT get about pfsense not seeing traffic it can not FORWARD?? Pfsense has no control of what hits is interface or not... Is pfsense a VM? Or hardware?

it's hardware.

Dude don't worry about it - but Pfsense can not forward what it can not see!!! Period.. If pfsense is not seeing the traffic - then its hardware related or something upstream is blocking it.. Pfsense can not forward what it doesn't get, you can not see an answer to your ping if it doesn't get there..
Did you change it what is your IP now?
Is this your ISP?

am like that.. I want things to FUCKING WORK.
I don't want to debug anything.Nice.
If the traffic does not arrive on WAN there is nothing for the firewall to forward.
You are going to have to figure out what is going on upstream preventing that traffic from being sent to you. When you have debugged that, your port forward will work. Sorry that maintaining a network is sometimes work. Good luck with your ISP.
That packet capture is before rules, before snort, before everything. The connections from the outside are not arriving on WAN.

@johnpoz :

If it never gets to your wan then it can not forward it
Okay, okay... but I don't really understand how I can solve that...
I will soon grab an old notebook and do a clean install of Ubuntu Server with Apache on all the default settings, and also format my current pfSense box.... once again... just to see if the problem is my web server or not..
I don't know what else to try, honestly..
-
ah, I may also try the apparently less buggy version, 2.4.3...
-
It is not a bug - at least not in pfSense. You need to figure out why your upstream/ISP is not forwarding the traffic to you. There is nothing pfSense can do with traffic it never receives.
-
But wait.. isn't the Packet Capture thing supposed to show something up when I "sniff" the WAN? I mean, it's a local procedure, right?
I got confused when you guys told me "it can't forward what it can't see" because I didn't know if you were talking about the WAN or the LAN.Also, wasn't pfSense supposed to work out-of-the-box? =/
I'm almost sure that it was working perfectly when I first set it up weeks ago.. even port forwarding..As I already mentioned, it couldn't be my ISP. Port Forwarding works perfectly on my Mikrotik router (when I swap Pf with it).
What's the chance of it being a hardware problem? I'm still not running a Intel NIC since they're unbelievable expensive here where I live..
WAN is the onboard NIC on this MB (apparently Realtek), and LAN is a... (also apparently) Realtek generic gigabit NIC.
Cheers.
