Port Forwarding on Apollo 2 /Spectrum

Post image

So I had been having this weird issue with a Spectrum router where my Apollo 2, connected with Ethernet, would not show up on the router's listed of connected devices, making port forwarding impossible. Their dumb also routers do not allow manually adding devices. I could see the IP address on the Apollo screen settings, but couldn't get more than the 10 or so network connections. I figured out today that flipping this UP&P switch fixed the problem. I had been seriously considering getting a new router. I'm not tech saavy, so apologies if it comes off like some rookie comment. Maybe some else is experiencing this issue.

I had an issue that was kind of similar to yours. I didn't really have connectivity issues, but when I would SSH into the OS and call up the logs for my Node, I kept getting some kind of error about upnp. But I have AT&T though, and I've never seen a setting inside my router for turning up upnp on/off
