Within the App on my phone you can set as many port forwards as you'd like and the settings do not stick.
I've been a network professional for some time, this isn't user error. In fact, I had an old cisco router with wwrt lying around to test and that opens the ports I'd like without issue.
Through testing, I've set a couple ports up with success by hard power cycling the nest wifi after making the change. However, I need about 4 different ports open and it's been too inconsistent to lock down them all. Is there any reason why when you add open ports via the app then hitting save the shotty firmware doesn't stick?
Does anyone have an actual fix? This has been posted countless times on reddit and other sites.
Oh, I've also tried to configure one of the (3) pucks as the main hub instead... same result.. It's not a hardware issue. It's clearly software.
If no one has one I'll just place a router in front of the google since they can't do it right.

I solved the issue using an Apple ipad via Home App to update the exact same settings and it worked.... pretty sad my own Pixel couldn't update a setting on another google product correctly.
