I have a linksys velop router. I followed all the steps from duckdns tutorials and have setup port forwading rules for hassio, configurator and node-red.
The internal ip address for hassio is 192.168.1.192
the problem is when i try to access https://myipaddress.duckdns.org, i get the error page “Your connection is not private” and if i proceed it shows up my server which has an internal ip address 192.168.1.212.
Can someone resolve how even after the port forwarding rule it points to another ip address in my home network and that too without https protocol.
Upon further investigation i found port 8081 is open which was not open by port forwarding rules.
yes uPNP is enabled. so that solves that issue. but still the main issue is present. i can access hassio on https://myipaddress.duckdns.org:8123.
its just when i put https://myipaddress.duckdns.org i get the above mentioned error and after accepting the risk the https gets striked out and my media server page login opens.
So by default https will go to port 443
And http will go to port 80
HASS runs on 8123, so you can add :8123 to the end of the address and it will make it connect using that port (either unencrypted if using http, or encrypted (by default) if using Https)
I’m looking forward to the next “I got hacked” topic. Seriously your problems have nothing to do with HA, check some Linksys forum on howto setup port forwarding properly. And I suggest to do some reading on HA security as it might not be a very good idea to open all these port unless you know what you’re doing.
Question similar to this thread. So Xfinity has an “advanced security” option which I’ve enabled on my network, however, what I’ve noticed is that even though i have Port 8123 forwarded on the router, if I’m not home or on my network and attempt to use the HA IOS app to connect to HA using my external duckdns address, the advanced security blocks the request as a threat and AFTER I get a message in the XFI app, I can “allow access for 30 days” for my phone, with the IP it’s currently using at the time.
My question is, does anyone else experience this, and alongside of just “disabling” the advance security feature, is there something else I can do? After seeing that there have been requests from other countries, trying to access my network on that port, I’m hesitant to simply disable the features, but it’s rather annoying, that I constantly struggle to access HA from my IOS device If I’m not home.
