Hello.

In your previous thread, you indicated that you want to keep the Slate as Router mode since you use it that way when you travel with the RV. Hence, the Slate (RV) firewall allows traffic to go outward to the Flint (house), but blocks Flint (house) traffic to go inward to the Slate (RV).

Some options:

  1. You can switch the Slate to Extender mode so that it will be on the same subnet as the Flint. There would not be firewall/NAT, so you have to switch back to Router mode when travelling.

  2. You can buy a 2nd Slate or some other brand of extender dedicated for working in your RV office and only use the 1st Slate for travelling.

  3. You can set up port forwarding on the Slate that opens selective “holes” in the firewall to allow traffic from the Flint to go inward to the Slate. Be careful to only open selective “holes” for specific traffic because this will reduce the level of security when you are travelling, or you can close the “holes” when travelling.
