I have a WNDR 3800 router. The router has the latest firmware. I am
sure this problem is NOT a strange problem to most 3700 and 3800
routers. For some reason, I am having problems with successfully
configuring my router to WHS 2011. This problem is about WHS 2011.
Let me explain, I have a WHS V1 server and I have WHS 2011 server. My
router configures and works fine on the WHS V1 server. I don't
encounter any configuration or setup problems on the WHS V1. However,
on the WHS 2011, I encounter configuration/setup issues. When I go to
setup (remote access) my router, WHS 2011 starts the configuration. It
will attempt to configure the router to work with WHS 2011. During this
process before it completes the setup, I get an error message about 443
is blocked.
YES, I have the 80, 443, and 4125 set to the WHS 2011 IP address.
YES, I have the WHS 2011 IP address reserved.
YES, firewall is turned off on the WHS 2011.
NO, I don't have any antivirus programs running or installed on the WHS 2011
YES, my router works fine otherwise.
YES, UPnP is enabled. (Even if I disable UPnP, I still get an error message)
NO, my ISP (Cablevision) is NOT blocking 80, 443, or 4125.
YES, I have rebooted my router.
YES, I have rebooted my WHS 2011
YES, WHS 2011 is directly connected to the router.
NO, I don't have any other Ports being forwarded on the router.
Yes, I do get a WAN IP address (ISP address)
Yes, I have posted my same question on the Netgear forums. No good suggestions.
My router fully works with WHS and I don't have any configuration
problems from setup to remotely accessing my WHS from Outside my
network. No problems at all.
Basically, the WHS 2011 stalls at setting up router. It gets stuck at "setting up router" message. Never finishes. I don't receive any error messages or nothing.
What am I missing on WHS 2011?
