Hi everyone,
I'm trying to set up a personal web server on my home network that should be accessible from the outside world. This worked previously when I was using a Fritz! Box, but I haven't had any success with the Acer Connect X6E 5G Router. Any attempts to access or ping my server via the router's public IP address have failed.
In the router's settings, I have:
- Activated the DMZ and pointed it to my server
- Set up port forwarding to my server (port 80)
- Opened the firewall on port 80
- Enabled WAN ping
Interestingly, the option to view the router's log files seems to have disappeared, even though the manual indicates it should be available.
Log of my ping-attempts:
Pinging my public IP
pascal ~ % nmap xxx.xxx.xxx.224
Starting Nmap 7.95 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2024-06-14 14:39 CEST
Note: Host seems down. If it is really up, but blocking our ping probes, try -Pn
Nmap done: 1 IP address (0 hosts up) scanned in 3.05 seconds
Pinging my server's local IP
pascal ~ % nmap 192.168.178.40
Starting Nmap 7.95 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2024-06-14 14:40 CEST

Did someone of you manage to set up a similar environment? Or it would already be of great help if somebody could indicate me how to access the router's log-file
