why?
it is not on a standard ssh 22 port
it is on port 1822
can this be from my side , as in torrent client that is configured to listen to that port tries to check and use it and openwrt logs that?
these two contradict eachother?

Could you be clear if it is working or not?
sorry meant to type cant and dropped the t.

A redirect is to forward a port to a host in the lan. A rule is to allow a port on the router. You want to open ssh on the OpenWrt from the wan, then you need a rule.
so the redirect from 1822 wan to 22 lan client also opens a port on 1822 too right?
I dont have to add that too? cause these rules worked for my last modem-to-openwrt layout.
also could this possibaly be a openwrt config bug
like this?
Good day to everyone! A few days ago I installed OpenWRT 18.06.01 on my TP-Link TL-WR841N v8. I used official image and everything get up (now I switched to custom build image without ipv6, ppoe, etc. but problem still there). I want to access to my router from work from specific ip via ssh, so I had add firewall rule and it did't workI tweaked the rule several ways and still nothing. I did try to open ssh to whole world and it's still not working! (not secure, I know, just for the …
maybe I should wait for 21.02 and use a clean one.
because I got other wired issues too.
for example when I tried to bridge the modem when it didnt get pppoe connection (my modem/isp issue maybe. not important) and I would restart that interface then my wifi connection to router would be fine but my network would be gone. as in I couldnt even ping 192.168.1.1 and only way to fix it was to restart the router.(because my router is in a high place and I dont have easy ethernet access to it from my laptop, but I can push its power button.
