Port Forwarding - Schtevo66 - 2024-05-24

Changed to a new router (Netcom NF20 Mesh), it will allow me to port forward port 80 but not port 443.

Error message is "this port 443 is used to the Broadband Router HTTPS server, Please choose another port"

My setup is Win10 server, Caddy, DuckDNS all set up as per https://www.reddit.com/r/jellyfin/comments/hotycl/windows_and_caddy_v2_reverse_proxy_guide/ was working fine with old router.

Anyone had this issue before, I'm sure it's simple but please ELI5

UPDATE: There were 2 settings to be changed - first the new ISP had to unblock the port, second was the WiFi mesh system was using 443 for it's https (as per the error message), changed that to another port (also had to re-pair the satellite unit) and all working.

Sounds like the router is from your ISP? If, a solution could be to set the router in bridge mode and put a router behind it. I dont know if your ISP will allow to disable their service on port 443

You can just set https on your reverse proxy to run on a different port. I run mine on 50443. But that does mean you have to include the port in the URL.
