I've had my mikrotik for a while but I'm struggling trying to host an old school game. The game I'm trying to play needs ports 2346, 2347, 2348 TCP and UDP. I added 2 NAT rules:
Chain - dstnat > Protocol - tcp > Dst port - 2346-2348 > In Int - ether1 > Action - dst-nat > To Addresses - IP of PC hosting game > To Ports - 2346-2348
Chain - dstnat > Protocol - udp > Dst port - 2346-2348 > In Int - ether1 > Action - dst-nat > To Addresses - IP of PC hosting game > To Ports - 2346-2348
Also added 2 filter rules
Chain - forward > protocol - tcp > dst port 2346-2348 > Connection NAT State - dstnat > Action - accept
Chain - forward > protocol - tcp > dst port 2346-2348 > Connection NAT State - dstnat > Action - accept
I can see the dstnat firewall log entry showing up when someone tries to connect to my server
dstnat: in:ether1 out:(unknown 0), src-mac XXXXXX, proto TCP (SYN), XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:6711->XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:2346, len 52
Added inbound and outbound rules to my windows defender firewall for ports 2346-2348, also tried disabling defender firewall completely to isolate this as an issue. Still can't get anyone to connect to my PC hosting the server. Any help would on this would be great, I'm not sure my if I have my filter rules in the right spot on the list, but it seems it is trying to forward the connection to my PC.
