Hello, Getting in on this thread late but I notice you mention checking the service from inside the network. If you are referring to just testing the port and the associated service - ok. If you are trying to test the NAT static mapping from the same network the static mapped device is on - this will not work. (in my experience) You have initiate the connection from another network. We had this same issue and though the static mapping appeared not to be working when testing from the same network. (which is a configuration that would not be used - but is probably the way most people set this up and test) When we tested from another network it was working fine. This was a real pain to figure out until by chance I tried it from another network and discovered it was working. You are correct that NAT routing must be enabled (In Ethernet -> Mod Config -> NAT Routing=Yes) and it must also be enabled for the appropriate connection profile for this feature to work. (In Ethernet -> NAT-> Routing=Yes and the Profile = the appropriate connection profile) you've probably seen this though as it's where the static mappings are set up. Good luck.
