K3 RemoteRig Issue - Remote radio won't power off fully

[Rick Tavan-2]

Recently I had to replace the router at my remote site. The replacement
router is the same model as its predecessor (Cisco EA4500). I had good, but
possibly imperfect, records of the port forwarding setup which I reproduced
on the replacement router. Now, pressing POWER on the Control K3 turns the
Remote K3 ON and operates correctly, but when I turn off the Control K3,
the Remote K3 stays on. If I then tap the POWER button on the Remote K3,
its screen goes solid amber with no LCD segments lit, but it does not fully
power down. It also becomes catatonic, its own POWER button useless, but
it's still responsive to power on from the Control K3. I have Restarted
both RemoteRig boxes to no avail. I have confirmed that my DDNS real IP
address is correct.

In case it's material, here are the port forwards I have in place:

RRC UPD Cmd 10000
RRC UDP Audio 11000
RRC Web 5058
RRC Telnet 5059
RRC SIP 5088

All port forwards are set the same for both internal and external use, both
TCP and UDP protocols, LAN address of the RRC.

Is something missing? Any suggestions?

Thanks,

I had a similar [but not exactly the same] problem when first
configuring for the W7RN remote.  Brandon's analysis was that the RS-232
cable between K3 and RRC was intermittent.  Turned out he was right, I
finally did the deoxit thing and worked with them, and when finally
seated tightly, problem solved.  I don't know if you've had to change
that but it might be worth a check.

Check to be sure there are no port blocking filters on the routers.  Be sure
the FW on the routers is up to date.  The "same" routers can be different
based on production and FW versions.  Good luck.
