Orange Funbox 6 Fiber Optic Router: Port Forwarding Range Error 8100-8300, Seeking Solution

Question

Hello. I have a problem with this Orange Funbox 6 fiber optic router on the ORANGE fiber, so I need to redirect ports from the external address to a permanent internal address. While single port forwarding works, I cannot forward a range of ports, e.g. 8100-8300. The router stubbornly claims...

Maybe you have already forwarded one of the ports in this range?

Allow me my friend to pass on such a hint...

I allow :D I doubt, however, that with such an approach of a colleague, anyone would want to lean on the problem.

Try a smaller range. Even 10. What? What protocol, numbering? I understand their approach a bit. do you have internet? does the link work? This means that everything is ok from the provider's side. And what will you do with this link, how will you use it and what configuration will you use for this, the provider doesn't care much, as long as it is within the law

I tried in different ways to enter the range, each time the answer of the router is the same. Invalid range. Interestingly, single ports are accepted and traffic redirection works, e.g. 5060. You're right, but it's their equipment, so I would expect a little more from them than whether the equipment is connected to the network and lights up green ... After several attempts to call their Hotline, I managed to break through to the next level, where at least they knew what I was talking about. They did not help but promised to call back, did not call back. Well, I handled it in a different way. The router gives you the ability to redirect all traffic to a fixed internal address. What is at stake, I don't need to explain.

Or rather incorrect software. Try to update. If that doesn't help, consider installing WRT standalone software.

Honestly, I hadn't thought of that. I did the tests on the new Funbox-6 equipment, because I have one at home, while the symptoms are the same on earlier versions, e.g. Funbox-3. I'll check the firmware version as well. Maybe that's the right direction.

You don't talk too much on the operator's firmware.
This is to give net, not be too difficult for blacksmith and possibly facilitate remote telemetry.
Hardware firmware has more options, but the command line has the most alternative WRT software (open wrt or whatever the project is now called)

It's great that you can't upload alternative software to FB6, and changing the router to ONT is possible, but it requires changes in your own router later because the PPPoE connection is not everything, you also need to configure the port on vlan35 to connect to the Internet
And what about other media from orange, such as TV, do you also have the Internet?

I also thought that even if I could, I would not risk my equipment on them, especially since the equipment is owned by the service provider, in this case ORANGE.

In the Internal Port field, enter only the first port from the defined range, e.g. 1000. In the External Port field, enter the full range, e.g. 1000-2000. Then save the button. The table should now contain the correct ones, i.e. the Internal Port and External Port fields should already contain the ranges of redirected ports.
