Dual Wan and Port Forwarding

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

I seem to be missing something very basic.

Here is my setup :
MikroTik RouterOS 6.33.3
RB1100AHx2

I have a Dual WAN which has the same gateway, so I set it up using the below wiki.
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Load_balancing_multiple_same_subnet_links

I then created a bridge1 and added ether3 to ether13 .
Setup DHCP for bridge 1

When I try to port forward none of it works :
/ip firewall nat add chain=dstnat dst-address=69.69.69.69 protocol=tcp dst-port=943
action=dst-nat to-addresses=192.168.1.101 to-ports=943

Where 69.69.69.69 is my external IP,
192.168.1.101 is the internal IP of a device connected to bridge 1.
943 is the port I want to forward.

2

the external ip address is configured in the router itself or is in another device?


The troubleshooting for this is:

telnet from the outside to that port

Example:

telnet 69.69.69.69 943

And telnet from inside to 192.18.1.101 943?

whats the output ? Do you see a blank window? or just say the connection was refused?

I mean the port forward configuration is correct, but first lets try if the device with the ip address 192.168.1.101 is listeting to that port.
