Opening ports for softether?

[Deleted member 549005]

After tons of pure pain I managed to get a Softether server up and running, but now I can't seem to get this onto the internet. Port checker shows that the ports are closed, and I have no idea what ports to enter on my router. I've messed around for a long time and ports still show up as closed. What exactly am I doing wrong?

I've never been so lost trying to something in my life, just looking for help

What mobile network are you using?

You need a unrestricted APN for it to work.

All your port forwarding rules will get blocked otherwise.

Why not also use a custom TCP port?

You don't need to forward all those ports when using softether's own client.

Remove the other ports under your server and remember to specify them under your client as well

I'm on rain which could be an issue as I don't seem to find any info on unrestircted APNs

Unfortunately I have no Rain coverage.

Hopefully you can have a quick chat with them via https://www.rain.co.za/contact-us regarding APN's

Plan B would be to use a Telkom Mobile LTE sim with the unrestricted APN option set.

SoftEther is a really neat tool
