Hi

I am new to this router.
I set port forwarding to an internal NAS (Synology) as follows:

from external port yyy50:yyy51 to 192.160.xx.xx internal port 5000 (assuming the Asus will understand 5000-5001)

When I try to access it, eg to reach the NAS GUI: I get SSL connection error, the page is not available.

From inside the LAN I can connect with http and https to the Synology.
From outside the LAN I can connect with http to both ports, but not https.

Have I missed setting an option somewhere in the RT-N66U?

Solved.

The solution is to make separate entries for each external port and map it to a single internal port.

So:

xxx50 -> 5000
xxx51 -> 5001

Port range forwarding does not work (properly) with SSL.

When forwarding a range, the destination port must be the same, and the field must be empty. You can't redirect a range to a different range, you have to create separate rules in that case.
