Had a problem today which hasnt happened before...

Res customer on HH3 with BT infinity. All seems to work fine.

Installed SW Dvr which was fine locally, dyndns working well from Dvr pov (I.E passwords and login correct). Dyndns site showing correct public ip.

Opened up relevent ports on hh. Upnp disabled. Set ip to static. Rebooted all.

Just cant seem to show ports open externally....

Look on the bright side. At least no one will be hacking the DVR

so whats your issue?

Issue is that the Dvr can't be accessed externally...

Longer fingers required, a well known and documented problem DD....so long as a large letterbox is fitted.

im on fibre with hh3, no issues, so i doubt its with the hh3.

 

I know thats not of much help, but reckon bt have sorted out the PF issues as the last few ive done have been ok, couple of years ago, they were a mare at times.

That sounds like a crossword clue...

I did read anout Nat loopback issues meaning that you couldnt uee a dyn address internally. Ffs how lame!

But the issue remains even when I tried on 3G.

Another site suggest a true static Ip outside the BT dhcp range... But not sure if the hub would allow forwarding to an arbitrary ip?? I only read that afterwards. At least the site is only 2 min away and im going back in a week anyway.

Im on infinity but use a different router, same white infinity box though.

Interestingly firmware on the hh is only a week old...

White box! That'll be the vdsl modem then . . .

I was trying to think of the word... Modem is not technically correct I think youll find...

Port Scanner, if it fails it's probably still a firewall issue?

Try a DMZ, to prove this.

Unlikely but ports can be blocked by ISP.
