Tutorials and FAQs / Re: [Tutorial] How I do port forwarding - simple and straightforward

i've tried this tutorial and others and the official how to   but i cannot get any of my port forwarding to work.  i've done port forwarding in the past on regular wifi routers but never anything like opnsense.

 i use a  noip domain to  rdp into my windows machine at home. 

internally i can rdp into any machine in my network in my lan.

the problem i have is can't  RDP from the wan. 

before my setup was    westdallas.ddns.net:9999  from the router  i would forward the 9999 port to win rdp ports in my lan to my server.  then i would use  9989  to connect to my desktop or another machine.

now i can't port forward anything  i need to set my truenas and my plex and my nextcloud but none of the port forward options are working.

i enabled nat reflection

i've spent a few hours on this can't get it to work.

I opened up the ports on the firewall for 9999 and 9989 and  WIN RDP  and in the firewall log i can see request hitting the firewall on port 9999 but it's not being routed to the internal ip i need it to go to.

i did set up the nat port forwarding as well .
