InControl Access Behind Nat

OK, lets see what you discover.

Remote Web admin is a two stage process, IC2 sends a request for a connection and then a adhoc VPN/Proxy is setup by the remote device to provide remote access. In both cases the source port in use by the Peplink device will be high (or at least out of the way of ‘normal’ network services).

I just did a network capture of a device as I requested remote access and source traffic from it was coming from ports 37600 and 58505. Higher range ports can sometimes be mistaken as BitTorrent traffic and so filtered by ISPs / routers.

Is there any chance your provider could be filtering upstream?
