Thanks!

I installed the firmware to my LBR20.

After that i could no longer reach my NAS-server at its public dyndns address <myserver.somedns.com> from devices connected to my LAN. If i connected from outside my LAN, I could reach the NAS just fine.

It seems to be that the Voxel firmware might not support NAT loopback / NAT hairpin.
It does not seem to be possible to activate/deactivate it from within the user interface.

Access to my NAS from within my LAN, using the same address as when I'm on the go is a key issue for me.

So i installed the old firmware from Netgear, LBR20_V2.7.5.6. and it works like before.

Would it be possible to support NAT loopback / NAT hairpin? - or might it be that I am missing something else?

All my LAN devices including the NAS is connected to my old router (Asus) which is in the ORBI's DMZ zone forwarding all incoming traffic to the Asus router.
That might not be an ideal setup, but i want to be able to easily switch to using other 4G routers, without having to reconfigure all my setup in the new 4G router.
