Server: Port forwarding in Nokia Modem
Good evening,
We have a new Modem from Nokia (Glassfiber) and now i do not know how to port forward to my calibre server. Does anyone have a clue? The Calibre server is http, but the Nokia modem only lets me choose between TCP and UDP. I made a rule with port 80 but no succes. Thank you very much in advance! |

TCP is what you want for Network protocol.
HTTP is the server mode Calibre uses. IMHO use a different port (on both the server and Calibre) as 8080 is very common and less tried by hackers looking for open ports. (8081-8089 is less used) |

You will need to supply a incoming port from the Internet and an outgoing port to your computer with calibre. In my current setup, I use 9380 as the port I would use outside my home network forwarded to port 8088 internally (in calibre's setup, the server is looking at port 8088). A bit of security through obscurity though that is mostly wishful thinking.
