Title: Port Forwarding on Pi 2 with Jessie
Post by: mplicit on November 08, 2017, 07:12:05 pm

Port Forwarding used to work perfectly on my pi 2 with Wheezy. Since I upgraded to Jessie it stopped working. Any thoughts?
Thanks

What do you mean by "port forwarding" in this context?  Port forwarding is normally something that happens on your router not on your pi, unless you're using your pi as a router?  Or do you mean that you just can't access the pi's server outside of your home network?  If that's the case its most likely a change in the pi's firewall iptables rules.  What is the output of "sudo iptables -L"

I can't access the PI's server outside my home network (port 52198) although I can access my Windows PC server outside my home network (port 52199) both using the same router.

below is the output that you asked for. Thanks for your help.

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         
pi@raspberrypi ~ $

I restarted my router and port forwarding is now working on my pi 2 :)
