You're right, sorry about that. I’ve actually referenced my device model and firmware version in a more recent thread here:

Slate AX can't connect to VPN server when Client is On

Hi, I recently purchased a Slate AX and I'm experiencing the same issue on firmware version 4.7.

I want to know how does the Slate AX connects to the Internet?

Is it connected to the ISP directly or you have another router and set up port forward?

The Slate AX is connected directly to the ISP modem via ethernet cable. Ports are also forwarded.
Currently my router is shared to the GLinet staff via goodcloud for testing this issue

At least this is not necessary because you connected to the ISP directly.
