IP filter not working

#1 Post by shawnsbrain66 » 2024-04-20 13:30

I have blocked all IPs and allowed specific IPs in the global filter, but it's not working as expected.
When I check the log file it shows all connections coming from 192.168.4.1, which is my local router IP.
If I remove 192.168.4.0/24 from my allow list, nothing can connect.
So it's not so much that the IP filter isn't working, it's that FZ thinks everything is coming from 192.168.4.1 and doesn't see the user's actual IP address.
This is new... not sure how to troubleshoot it.

Looks like your router is rewriting the source IP. Instruct your router not to do this and the issue will go away.
