Re: Port forward from LTE [SOLVED]

The port also needs to be allowed on the "input" in the /ip firewall filter for the same port/protocol as the dst-nat to work. And it should be added just below the ICMP input accept rule. The dst-nat rule is still needed. Note here....this part is critical: And yes, we have fixed public ...
