I am having some trouble allowing my 2wire router (provided by AT&T to forward certain ports.
I have a raspberry pi running subsonic (a music server) and I would like to access it from the outside internet. I have configured the pi with a static LAN IP address and have opened the specified ports (4040 and 80) on both TCP and UDP. I have also confirmed the service is active and is listening on the specified ports via netstat.
When I attempt to connect, however, from my WAN IP I am confronted with a connection refused dialog. Checking the firewall logs on my router, I see this message
IN=br1 MAC=--:--:--:--:--:-- SRC=(my computer IP) DST=(My WAN IP) LEN=40 TTL=240 PROTO=TCP DPT=5060 Unknown inbound session stopped
It appears that my firewall is still blocking the external connection. What strikes me as odd is, although I am unable to connect I can still see that the port is open from an outside port scanner. Using the service provided from http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ I have confirmed that my IP has port 4040 to be open.
Once again, I have confirmed that the service is indeed listening on the raspberry pi, setup a static LAN address and created the protocol for both TCP and UDP....
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Ok so for whatever reason it was working all along. Apparently it was just getting confused by me trying to connect to my own router. I confirmed this by connecting to the server via 4G on my phone.
Dumb mistake by me.
