Hello, I'm having an issue when setting port forwarding, I have a foscam Ip camera that uses port 88. When I set to forward port 88 on both (UPD + TCP) and it doesn't work, I've change the camera port to 8090 with the same results. I tested using the link below but the router won't open the port.

Does anyone have a suggestion? I already reset the router to factory default via GUI and via WPS then I set the router again and still doesn't open the ports.

This is the connection log

tcp 172.56.30.31:16190 192.168.1.200:88 SYN_SENT

I've just got the RT-AC56U myself and have just set up 5 ipcameras (wired & wireless) . I'll run thru how I did it just incase you missed a step..
1. Attached camera via Ethernet to router and configured wireless
2. Made a note of MAC address IP Address on the Network Map page of the GUI
3. Removed Ethernet and rebooted IPCamera
4. Made a note of new MAC address on network map
5. On LAN-DHCP Server page allocate the MAC from step 4 to a static IP address
6. Reboot IPCamera to pick up new IP address
7. Check System Log-DHCP Leases on the router to verify the correct MAC / IP address combo has been set up
8. On WAN-Virtual Server / Port Forwarding create a new entry for the IP address you assigned at 5 , Port Range 88 and local port 88 Protocol TCP. Remember to Apply the change
9. After router has rebooted check System Log-Port Forwarding to see if the rule you created has been applied, should look like this

Destination Proto. Port range Redirect to Local port
ALL TCP 88 192.168.1.72 88

you should now be set up.. Assuming you've configured your Dynamic DNS for your external url.
