By default, the router will come with port forwarding rules for a single IP address. However, we can add more port forwarding rules to accommodate multiple devices. This is only necessary if remote connection is required to the devices. If the device just needs an outbound connection, then no additional port forwarding rules are necessary as outbound connections are not blocked.
Please contact our Technical Support team if you require additional port forwarding rules added to your CSL Router. You can contact the team on +44 1895 474 444 or m2msupport@csl-group.com.
