Huawei EchoLife HG8546M Port forwarding not working ?

You tried bending your knees up, but still facing problem with Port forwarding on Huawei EchoLife HG8546M? Well, there’s a reason, Wise men said “The opposite of Networking is Not Working”. So, it does take some trial and error to get it working.

Here let’s go through the common port forwarding issues and problems on Huawei EchoLife HG8546M Router and how to fix them.

1.You may be behind more than one router

More often than not, your computer connects to your home router(Huawei EchoLife HG8546M) which then connects to your internet service provider's router before connecting to the internet(port forwarding through 2 routers). To find out, log in to your Huawei EchoLife HG8546M Router and check the IP address on the status page. If it is not the same as your external IP address (a quick Google search of ‘what is my IP’ should help) then your Huawei EchoLife HG8546M is not the internet facing router. If that’s the case, you may need to login to the first router and enable DMZ for the second router’s (Huawei EchoLife HG8546M) IP Address.

2.Did you enable static IP on your devices that’s requesting port forward on your Huawei EchoLife HG8546M router

Yes, we're repeating a step here we know, but it's imperative you're sure. If your IP changes every time you reboot your PC/console, it means the network setting is still set to dynamic. Follow step 1 in this guide, reboot your device and confirm the IP hasn't changed. Now you're good to go. (In few cases, though the static IP is enabled correctly, a reboot may be required for proper IP recycling. Well, Reboot does work) Ofcourse, Port forwarding does work without static ip, But once you turn off your device you may lose the IP and will not receive any incoming traffic from Huawei EchoLife HG8546M Router

3.Verify that you entered correct IP Address on port forwarding in Huawei EchoLife HG8546M

Log in to the Port forwarding section of your Huawei EchoLife HG8546M router and verify the IP entered is correct. First understand which end device will use this port (XBOX / PS3 / PS4 / PC / IP Camera) and enter the IP Address of that device. Note: If your Huawei EchoLife HG8546M Router says that have you to choose your computer's name from dropdown box for the port forwarding rule instead of an IP address, make sure there are no duplicate computer names and you have chosen the right one.

4.Check the External IP addresses field in the port forwarding rule of Huawei EchoLife HG8546M Router

Check if Huawei EchoLife HG8546M Router has a field called “External IP address” in the port forwarding section. Make sure you Enter "0.0.0.0" in the External IP address fields. External IP addresses are not entered unless you are restricting access from specific WAN addresses. You also would not enter LAN IPs or your own public IP.

5.Double check / tweak your Huawei EchoLife HG8546M Firewall settings

In this age, cyber security is of utmost importance. Some router developers are producing routers with more built-in firewall. While this is definitely a positive, some of these options could restrict incoming connections even if a port forwarding rule is set on Huawei EchoLife HG8546M Router. Thankfully we programmers are a humble lot. Routers come with excellent information on the help page and a quick glance should tell you which settings need to be modified/disabled. Usually, you can just set the firewall settings to its minimum settings on Huawei EchoLife HG8546M Router. And don’t worry, your computer will continue to be protected.

6.Check your PC Firewall settings allows incoming port traffic from Huawei EchoLife HG8546M Router

Your Windows / Mac / Linux firewall / antivirus could be blocking connections. You need only one Antivirus and Firewall application. Make sure you turn windows firewall “ON” and that no other firewall is installed. Then try adding the ports to the firewall app, not just the program that is going to use them If you're using a 3rd party Antivirus solution, check if it has a built-in firewall as part of the antivirus solution. A quick look at the apps homepage should give you a clue.

7. Using the same port in different port forwarding rules of the Huawei EchoLife HG8546M router

port is your home network’s doorway and can be forwarded to only one Computer/IP at a time. Ensure you didn’t type-in the same port in multiple forwarding rules on your Huawei EchoLife HG8546M Router.

DMZ is an 'open all ports' rule. On most routers, this rule simply overrides port forwarding rules. You may want to disable DMZ and give it another go.

9. Reboot Huawei EchoLife HG8546M after adding port forwarding rules

Some routers, like most application, need to be rebooted after settings have been applied or changed. A simple tweak in the regular power cycling (Why am I trying to impress you? Unplug the power cord and shove it back in is all I'm saying) helps with most issues.
