I have forwarded port 22 (ssh) on my new g34, and it seems to work well for a time. I am able to establish an ssh connection from inside or outside my network using my public ip (ssh user@publicip) However, after a seemingly random amount of time, I am no longer able to connect to the forwarded port using my public IP from inside the LAN. Connections from outside the LAN continue to work fine (phone on 4g, other networks, etc...) and connections made using the local ip inside the LAN work fine. The issue only occurs when devices attempt to connect via my public IP while connected to my LAN.

The same issue occurs on all forwarded ports. They work for a time, then stop. The biggest issues are caused by “port 80” being blocked. This prevents me from being able to access the website I host from home while using my computers at home. This is a major problem for me because it makes it difficult properly manage and maintain the website.

Using the local IP when at home is not a sufficient solution in this case because it requires setting up a separate web server just to handle local traffic, which then needs to be maintained to ensure it’s working the same as the public server.
