  1. Can't remove misconfigured port


    Hi there,

    Recently, I misconfigured a printer port. I made a local port named USB001 and after that I installed the virtual port USB001.

    As a result, my printer not working and when I tried to remove it, it just said that port is in used, even without printer.

    Any probably solution.

    :)

    Can't remove misconfigured port

    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.



    Regards,
