NAT loopback on v380.57 and RT-AC68U

[Ian Manning]

I've been trying to get NAT loopback working on my RT-AC68U, but have had no luck. I've tried:
- Both Merlin and Asus NAT Loopback
- Disabling NAT acceleration
- Disabling/enabling the firewall
- Disabling/enabling port forwarding.

I did a factory reset and two power cycles when flashing Merlin (as advised elsewhere on this forum), but I still can't access LAN resources (IP cams, web servers, etc) using external IP addresses.

Has anyone got NAT Loopback working on the RT-AC68U with Merlin v380.57?

If you have NAT acceleration disable, your 2.4ghz band is probly broken.Try reaching internet with a wireless device if NAT is disabled, you surely cant.
Its a knowed problem with 380.57 and 380.1031 asus for the Ac68

You're right - I hadn't noticed that the 2.4Ghz band was broken. So is there any way of getting NAT Loopback working with Merlin at the moment?

Thanks. Has anyone here managed to get NAT Loopback working with 378.56_2, John fork 16E1 or 374.43 (v16e1)?
