Port is being blocked

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community forums.

• Are you aware of any changes that happened on the computer prior to this issue?
  

Upon researching, this seems like an issue due to the port scan. You may want to try the steps listed below and check if it works.

• Login to your Netgear
  NX6200 Extender GUI.
  
• Click on Advanced tab and choose
  WAN Setup.
  
• Check the box for Disable Port Scan and DoS Protection.
  
• Allow it to update and check if the port is still being blocked.
  

However, if the issue persists, I suggest you to post your query in the
TechNet Forums, where we have support professionals
equipped with knowledge on port forwarding.
