Question

I have followed the tutorials to port forward on the rut240. I have a vpn and 4g sim for wan and opened all ports on the vpn. I can access the router through the public IP but if I change the router port to say 81 I cannot access it amd if I set something else to 80 I cannot access it. Equally if I set another service to any other port I cannot access it. The only thing I can access is the router if it’s set to port 80

Hello, 

By default RUT firewall blocks access to ports 22/80/443 when trying to access it from zone different than LAN.

Have you enabled remote access via System -> Administration -> Access control?

If you have activated this option, remember to indicate the port you wish to access. In the case of access via WebUI, you must enter the ip and then the selected port in the web browser. Remember that web browsers have port 80 configured by default. 

Here is an example if you modify the port to number 85.
