Windows 10: Port issue

Hello, I am trying to open some ports on a Windows machine. I first tried on the Firewall manager adding the TCP ports, and that didn't work. I even tried to disable Defender completely, but that didn't work either. Note that I did not restart the computer, because it is a server and it needs some planning to do so. Any other things I can try to open those ports?ThanksVanessa

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.

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

Hi Mattx1,

Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

1. Does the issue occur with all the USB devices plugged in to the PC?
   
2. Does the issue occur when you plug in the USB device to any of the UISB port on the PC?
   
3. Did you make any changes to the PC prior to this issue?
