FW2 port forward showing gateway address

FW2 port forwarding is working but returns the gateway address instead of the incoming connections true ip address. How can I get it to reflect the source ip address. Here is my firewall setting:

config redirect
	option dest 'lan'
	option target 'DNAT'
	option name 'Chia'
	list proto 'tcp'
	option src 'wan'
	option src_dport '8444'
	option dest_ip '192.168.1.34'
	option dest_port '8444'
	option reflection_src 'external'

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

If you want to use reflection, then the gateway IP will be the source.
The other option is to access the server directly, either by its internal IP address or create a hostname and use that instead.
