I am trying to setup portforwarding on a Fritzbox 7490 running FRITZ!OS 6.9 to enable a FHEM application to be reachable from the internet.

If I choose automatic port forwarding and allow all ports to be opened (there are tick boxes to allow this), everything works.

For security reasons I would like to only open the ports I need via the static port forwarding option (see https://en.avm.de/service/fritzbox/fritzbox-7490/knowledge-base/publication/show/893_Setting-up-static-port-sharing/).

However when I click "New Sharing" -> "Port Sharing", I have no drop-down list "Application". Actually there is no form or option displayed at all. I only can click "OK" or "Cancel". If I click "OK" there is a info box asking me to select an application.

I would be very grateful for you help! Thanks a lot.

    Not sure if it helps: When I click on "New Sharing" (in the German interface, so with different names), a window appears that contains the "Application" drop-down list together with other options. Possibly a bug in the English GUI vs. the German GUI?

  • I am actually also using the German interface, but thought I reach a wider audience writing in English. The exact window you are describing is empty (but the OK and Cancel button).

  • @racon Try a different browser.

Ok, the problem could be circumvented by changing the browser. The problem occurred with Firefox 57.0.1. With Chrome all forms and options are shown as expected.

Very straight forward, but I didn't think of trying that in the first place.
