port forwarding issues with google nest

khutched — Tue, 23 Nov 2021 01:17:01 GMT

I am having issues with port forwarding port 1802 to my laptop. so to explain my setup, i have 2 google nest router (my main router is upstairs with my modem), a nest point and a google wifi on the 3rd floor.

so i have the main router hooked up to my modem upstairs, my laptop is wired via ethernet through a network switch to my secondary google nest router (this is not my main router jsut acting as a wifi point).

I have port forwarded my firewall on my laptop and set a static IP for my laptop with my router along with port forwarding 1802 TCP to my google home app. What am i currently missing? cause for some reason the port is still showing as closed.

As an FYI , i have found ports that ar running and those show as closed when i run a test also.
