Configuration of Routers, Firewalls, etc / Xfintity Xfi detecting attacks and blocking
« on: 2020-09-21, 15:53:41 »
Hi,
I have been running the Remoterig setup on my lan wired for a couple days and then and also on wireless for a week with not issues.
I then setup xxxxxx.ddns.remotefig.com and undid my local wifi password to use me device over cellular hot spot and got a sip connection error (Flashing yellow Light).
I am connecting to Xfinity Xfi on the Radio side with their Gigspeed router and the new router requires you to go to the Xfinity XFI page to setup advanced settings and have setup port forwarding using the default 1300 thru 13002.
He lies the issue, Xfinity Xfi has built in protection against outside attacks and disables ports if it detects malicious attacks. which it has detected and has reported - There should be an option to disregard the attacks and allow the ports to be remain open overriding the security for 30 days.
My other option is to completely disable the Xfi protection which I would prefer not to do as I want to retain the auto protection for other devices (Wife and kids have devices I would rather not have to keep fixing.)
If I could setup a second router to allow the RRC unit and retain the Xfinity router that would be another great option too.
Any Ideas tips and tricks would be greatly appreciated - I do know that the ports and xxxxxx.ddns.remotefig.com worked thru the hotspot at one point during my trial setup before I letf it connected to the internal LAN and WiFI to verify a solid SIP connection.
