WIRES-X open ports/port redirection was created by pa3efr
As HAM Radio operator I did setup my equipment to run an application called WIRES-X with my Vigor 2926. It uses UDP ports (46100, 46110, 46112, 46114, 46120 and 46122) to communicate and I did do some reading in this Community Board on open ports and port redirection. However, it does not want to work on my Vigor. WIRES-X does work on my fixed house network, which bring me to the conclusion: the PC is setup correctly.<br/>
<br/>
Back to the Vigor. <br/>
- I disabled the firewall on the Vigor. Enabled LTE for the mobile traffic, internet access is fine.<br/>
- I enable port redirection, one-to-one port translations, no luck on running WIRES-X. <br/>
- I enabled open ports, range of UDP ports, no luck on running WIRES-X.<br/>
- I set port triggering, no luck on running WIRES-X.<br/>
- I activated all three independently and simultaneously, but WIRES-X with it's port check feature does not run whatsoever.<br/>
<br/>
After some days of trial and only errors, I am hoping that someone can help me. I really appreciate any help you can provide.<br/>

It sounds as though you are trying to use an LTE connection via a mobile network to run your WIRES-X. In such a case you would not normally be given a public IP address by the LTE operator (I understand that you can get one by paying rather more than the standard rates, but have no experience of that myself). I understand that WIRES-X requires a "proper" external public IP address, which is why it works on your fixed line.<br/>
