RT-AX86U Pro - Merlin: can't get p2p cameras available to wan.

[mightyoakbob]

Hi Guys,

Got a new router AX86U pro 3 weeks ago and wife noticed last week mobile phones can no longer see our cameras NVR. My wife thinks it was working until a week ago so it maybe not the router. It works fine on the LAN with ethernet or wifi but will not connect from the inernet. No settings have been changed in the NVR or mobiles and p2p is switched on in the NVR. I have no means to tell if the problem is the internet server is not getting connected to and updated or there is a problem with the phones.
Is there anything I may have done to kill p2p in the router? Most grateful for any suggestions, well almost any.

Cheers,
Bob.

You need to find what the NVR needs for remote monitoring. Check the NVR User Manual first, check/match the new Router settings after.

Might be a good time to disable access to LAN clients from the internet. Plenty of hacking going on right now...
You can always check your cams when you get home.

@mightyoakbob, in case this NVR requires any open services to Internet - better wait.
