Configured the interfaces as follows

Hi,

First you should hide your IP addresses in your original post. Next, you should check IP->Services, just to make sure there is nothing changed. Your firewall rule is accepting (matching ) some traffic.
One additional note, i guess you are not trying to open WebFig from LAN side, just pointing your browser to Public IP?
P.S.
I can not access your IP telneting to port 80, so if you see some connections from Serbian IP's its just me ;)

I suggest you put the WAN on ether1 not ether5 unless you know what you're doing.
I don't know what you've done with your master/slave ports either.
ether1 should not be a master or a slave.
ether2 should be a master and ether3-ether5 should be slaves.
(Until 6.41 of course)

Because that's what the default configuration is set up for. Otherwise you have to change lots more things.

I always suggest to fully remove the configuration and set only the features and parameters you really need. It is also wise to keep ether1 unconnected if possible because an accidental overvoltage can damage port and only ether1 is capable of pxe boot for netinstall.

Hi,

Thanks for your response.
Yes I am entering the public ip in the browser and trying to connect that way with the RB.
it does work when connected to the RB via LAN but when I unplug the cable, it doesn't anymore.

Laptop ------- 192.168.xx.x RB 10.0.x.x/30 --------10.0.x.x/30 RB 10.0.x.x/30 ------- bridge to another building across the street --- 10.0.x.x/30 RB 10.0.x.x ----- 10.0.x.x/30 RB
The above is the setup and is located at my school.

The first RB should stay at school and have a public IP address so that way I can access it from home and try to configure it.

Could you explain me what is the difference and importance of those master slave ports?
I now have put the public ip address on Ether1. Ether2 is master port, 3-5 are slave

A switch is connected to cpu by master port. Other slave ports of the same switch group are not directly linked to cpu.
