[RESOLVED] Port Forward not working - reply with wrong source port?

[namezero111111]

Dear folks,

I am not seeing this error right away. Trying to NAT and port forward with the following rule as attached.
WAN is 192.168.254.2/24 (NAT If)
LAN is 172.16.16.0/24 (Test If)

While the incoming request is seen, it seem like the outgoing reply is NATed separately with a wrong source port:

Hence, the connection never establishes.

Any idea how this could be misconfigured?

The problem was an overlapping outbound NAT.
