I can't get a basic dstnat to work at all. Ports show up as open, but traffic doesn't seem to get forwarded to the server behind the router. Port forwarding with my last router in the same exact configuration worked perfectly. Any help greatly appreciated.

[admin@MikroTik] /ip firewall nat> print
Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid, D - dynamic 
 0   ;;; default configuration
     chain=srcnat action=masquerade out-interface=ether1-gateway 

 1   chain=dstnat action=dst-nat to-addresses=192.168.88.100 protocol=tcp 
     dst-address=*.*.*.* dst-port=25565 

 2   chain=dstnat action=dst-nat to-addresses=192.168.88.100 protocol=tcp 
     dst-address=*.*.*.* dst-port=8080

Just to make sure, was your last router a MikroTik?

I've not tried matching all IPs with the syntax you are showing, Did you '*' out the real public IP? Or does your config really contain the '*'s?

If so, you might try this instead, untested:

/ip firewall nat
   add chain=dstnat action=dst-nat to-addresses=192.168.88.100 protocol=tcp in-interface=ether1-gateway dst-port=25565
   add chain=dstnat action=dst-nat to-addresses=192.168.88.100 protocol=tcp in-interface=ether1-gateway dst-port=8080

Now these ports seem to just be timing out.

[admin@MikroTik] /ip firewall nat> print
Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid, D - dynamic 
 0   ;;; default configuration
     chain=srcnat action=masquerade out-interface=ether1-gateway 

 1   chain=dstnat action=dst-nat to-addresses=192.168.88.100 protocol=tcp 
     in-interface=ether1-gateway dst-port=25565 

 2   chain=dstnat action=dst-nat to-addresses=192.168.88.100 protocol=tcp 
     in-interface=ether1-gateway dst-port=8080

Is it possible that your server doesn't accept non-local connection requests (e.g. a windows machine with default firewall settings)?
In this case an additional

chain=srcnat action=masquerade out-interface=ether2-master-local

(put your internal interface there...) would do the trick.

I upgraded to v6.0rc12 because I've been having so many problems with this router.

My previous router was a random linksys. I had no problem forwarding these ports with it. The servers I have running are definitely configured to receive any incoming connections, as again, they were working fine before I got this MikroTik router.

This is what my firewall rules look like currently:

[admin@MikroTik] /ip firewall nat> print
Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid, D - dynamic 
 0   ;;; default configuration
     chain=srcnat action=masquerade to-addresses=0.0.0.0 
     out-interface=ether1-gateway 

 1   chain=dstnat action=dst-nat to-addresses=192.168.88.100 protocol=tcp 
     in-interface=ether1-gateway dst-port=25565 

 2   chain=dstnat action=dst-nat to-addresses=192.168.88.100 protocol=tcp 
     dst-address=**.**.**.** dst-port=8080 

 3   chain=srcnat action=masquerade out-interface=ether2-master-local

I've tried a whole bunch of different configurations which should all work, but nothing ever seems to. Is there anything I could be missing?

Post your whole config just incase something else is messed up.

Most of this stuff is just default. I added a couple static addresses, a public dns server, and the firewall rules. Please let me know if there's anything here I can improve.

Disabled the last rule (drop rule) in /ip firewall filter and see if that works.

It would be easier to use the Netmap action to perform port forwarding.

add action=netmap chain=dstnat comment="Your Comment" disabled=no dst-port=8888 in-interface=ether1-WAN protocol=tcp to-addresses=192.168.1.50

This statically maps the external port "8888" on ether-1 to the specified machine 192.168.1.50.

Is it possible that your server doesn't accept non-local connection requests (e.g. a windows machine with default firewall settings)?
In this case an additional
Code: Select all
chain=srcnat action=masquerade out-interface=ether2-master-local
(put your internal interface there...) would do the trick.

You did it, thanks
