Help setting up firewall for port 51820

Hello all, brand new route10 user here.

I have my route 10 up and running but I am struggeling with opening port 51820 for my pivpn.

Yes, I know route10 has a building wireguard server, but I’d like to keep using my pivpn for now. I can’t seem to get the port open.

my pivpn is assigned 192.168.1.10 as a reserved ip on the route10

I’ve tried a million different combinations of the below:

anyone have suggestions?

THANK YOU

Hmm, looks pretty fine off hand although I think Zone In would typically be set to WAN and Zone Out would be LAN in this scenario. Also I think only UDP is needed for Wireguard as I recall.

We can double check that the rule is definitely being set on the router by opening up a terminal (shift+click on the router name in the teminal) and run the command uci show firewall. That should spit out all the firewall rules that have been set on the router.

Possibly, a companion firewall Allow rule has to be set up?

Remove the port on redirect to, just put the ip address in. Thats how i have all mine setup.
