I have an RV325 router installed at our office. We have Comcast cable modem providing internet access and this route has been rock solid. 2 months ago I added a port forward rule of TCP Printer TCP/9100-9100 to IP address 192.168.0.63 this has worked flawlessly to a label printer. We went to add a second label printer and was able to add TCP/9101-9101 to I p address 192.168.0.73. Again it worked. Then one day the newer 9101 port quit working. I did all of the usual trouble shooting ip address printer all good. Nothing changed in the router the port forward and access rules all still looked good. But the port was closed. So I deleted the rules and then the problems just seemed to snowball on me. I updated the firmware to the newest and still no change. My big problem is when I open the window to edit add or delete the service management table I cannot add new rules and if I do they do not save as the TCP protocol I want, it save as all traffic ect. Has anyone else experienced this and can tell me what I am doing wrong. Current version of firmware v1.5.1.13 (2020-10-27, 13:37:43)

if you upgraded the firmware of the router, you may need to clear your browser cache
"was able to add TCP/9101-9101 to I p address 192.168.0.73"
are you sure? did you also change the port on the printer ?
you checked the IP of the printer, did you also check the port?
i would suggest you keep the port on the printer unchanged from 9100 and only use a different outside port
TCP/9100-9100 to IP address 192.168.0.63
TCP/9101-9100 to I p address 192.168.0.73
