Greetins Toms,

To start this off I'm not very network savvy. I'm trying to run an Assetto Corsa server but in order to run it I need to forward a couple ports, but I can't get any of them open. Getting ports to open has always been a problem for this router but I had always thought I was doing something wrong due to my network ignorance. Apparently not the case. This router in particular has issues getting ports to forward.

Firmware ver 3.0.0.4.380_4180, I have the firewall turned off, upnp turned off, and nat acceleration turned off. From the reading I've done, people had turned all of these off to get it working but still no hope for me. Last resort looks like a factory reset which people have said makes them work for a few months then you need to reset again.

Wanted to see if people had any other solutions for me before I factory reset it.

Turn on UPnP as it will open ports automatically when the server needs to access. If you are suspecting the firmware. Try installing ddwrt firmware for your router. It will give good results.
