To be able to administrate my OpenWRT router from Internet I need to open the ssh port on the Wan interface.
It is real simple, just add to following to /etc/config/firewall:
#open ssh on wan interface
config rule
option src wan
option dest_port 22
option target ACCEPT
option proto tcp
And restart the firewall:
#/etc/init.d/firewall restart

You saved my day 🙂
Compiled our new test firmware and was wondering why I can not acces via ssh on wan port 😛

I tried that and it works – Thanks
But what I would like to do is:
on the Wan side the port should be 1234 and on the lan side it should be 22 i.e. so internally I can still ssh via 22 but over the internet I use port 1234.
Any idea how to do that?
