General Discussion / Access via WAN for remote access - not working, ideas?
« on: April 04, 2017, 04:03:57 am »
I have a firewall rule to allow WAN 443 thru to the WAN address to 443. I have the web access set to https. When I check the firewall logs, I can see that I'm allowed in to the to the WAN IP and not blocked. However, I never get the GUI web page to respond. I have also tried http/80 and Icmp. With Icmp I do get replies when I have the rule active.
I know it's frowned upon to access remote this way but just getting accustomed to this vs pfsense now.
Trying to better understand.
I also have the antilockout rules and the GUI port redirect disabled.
I tried a custom port as well 9090.
Any ideas what I could be missing? I feel it must be something simple.
What could I be missing? I see the traffic at least passing thru the firewall rule to the WAN address.
