Can confirm that port forwarding working perfectly for me on firmware v0.41.00.07076-BT
as I think someone pointed out, port forwarding is software not hardware so it would be highly unlikely a change of hardware will help.
most likely scenario is that the port isn’t actually going anywhere on the target computer. Either set up incorrectly or firewall not set up correctly as the port will be, for all purposes, closed if mistargeted.
better to test on the local lan without the internet (therefore any port forwarding) being involved as see if you can actually get to that port. From one PC to another, across the LAN. If not, then router cannot be at fault as not used.
if you can, then perhaps misconfiguration of port forwarding and firewall rules.
but it is something only you can test locally. It’s just troubleshooting. Take all complications out of the way and start from as basic as you can and prove each step, adding each layer of complication upon each positive check to find where the issue is.
just saying SH2 is rubbish! Is, to be honest, someone who wants to blame rather than finding out the cause and fixing it.
