      @cire3 OK so it looks like 9300 is hitting the WAN interface.

              @cire3 Rules are read from the top down, I suggest you have a read:-

              https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/firewall/rule-list-intro.html

              Everything TCP will hit the 3rd rule down.

                  @nogbadthebad UDP to TCP/UDP to TCP. No change

                    @cire3 If you still have that 3rd rule you need to delete it, it won't hit your NAT rule.

                    Its very dangerous what you've done with that rule and if you havent noticed all your TCP traffic is hitting it.

                      @nogbadthebad Oh dam, corrected :)

                      Any other thoughts ? Hate to rebuild the box.

                      Only thing I notice is the port conversions forward, but the port to port match don't. Or it's just a fluke.

                        @cire3 I'd check with the supplier again, you've got to and - in your first post, is that a range or is it convert one port to another.

                        A packet capture using the phones IP address would show you whats hiting the firewall.

                          @nogbadthebad Directions.PNG

                          This was the direction I was given. Some ports convert, while one is a range

                          Ports Working :

                          44443 Convert to 443 Forward to 10.10.1.25 Status: : Open
                          24493 Convert to 2728 Forward to 10.10.1.25 Status : Open

                          Port Not Working :

                          16000 Through 16511 Forward to 10.10.1.26 Status : Closed
                          9300 Forward to 10.10.1.25 Status : Closed

                            @cire3 Well your packet capture shows port 9300 TCP not UDP as per their info.

                              @nogbadthebad Just changed that a bit ago as I was testing both ways. Set to UDP per instructions. Just trying to find if the information I have is accurate.

                              Will it show open even if there is not a device on that IP ? Just a curious thing more than anything. Is PFSense rejecting it, or is the device not accepting it was my wonder

                                      UDP is pretty difficult to get clear picture of open or not, unless something actually answers.. It can fairly often show in accurate results.

                                      If your sending UDP traffic - best to do is sniff on your pfsense wan while you send that traffic, etc.

                                        @cire3 You have quite a few ports open, your pfSense GUI is open to the internet.

                                        Nice purple background.

                                          Yeah your top rule that says ping is ANY to tcp... Pretty bad rule!

                                          bad.png

                                          This would be a proper rule to allow ping to your pfsense wan address

                                          allowpingwan.png

                                          You would want to use the alias - in case your wan IP changes at some point in the future.

                                            Rule removed, and thanks !

                                            I believe I was trying to allow ping on WAN.

                                            So do I have any way to determine my ports are working as they should ?

                                            I have no clue if this device is even setup correct and I'm just beating my head against the wall for nothing ?
