    Show us a screenshot of your port forward rules and WAN firewall rules if it's still not working.

        @patelsaheb Don't set a source port.

        You don't need floating rules. delete them.

        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

            No floating rules are necessary. Don't over-think it.

                      Why would you need to do that, just access the local IP.. setup a host override to resolve whatever fqdn you want to the local IP vs doing nat reflection.

                      If you insist on doing such nonsense - then you have to enable and setup nat reflection.
