Hi,
I run TP-Link Kasa Smart Plugs in my house. I have noticed that when trying to control remotely, they grey out on either iOS or Android. If I connect to the local network, the plug displays "Local Only". According to TP-Link this message indicates that remote access is not enabled on the plug but when I look into the settings it is.
TP-Link doesn't give much assistance with their devices but I found a website which says that the plugs use Ports:
- 80 TCP
- 9999 TCP
- 1040 UDP
So I reserved their IP's and created two new firewall rule as follows:
Group: Smart Switches
Firewall 29: Kasa Services
Source Zones: LAN
Source Networks and devices: "My two devices"
Destination Zones: WAN
Destination Networks: Any
Services: Kasa Ports which is a port group TCP Source: 1:65535 > 80 | TCP Source: 1:65535 > 9999 | UDP Source: 1:65535 > 1040
No Scan HTTP, HTTPS, Block Google, Scan FTP
No IPS, Traffic Shaping, Web Policy, App Control
Firewall 30: Smart Switches
Source Zones: LAN
Source Networks and devices: "My two devices"
Destination Zones: WAN
Destination Networks: Any
Services: Any
No Scan HTTP, HTTPS, Block Google, Scan FTP
No IPS, Traffic Shaping, App Control
Web Policy: All All
I can see traffic going out as "Allowed" in logging and all looks fine from the XG side, but the switches are still inaccessible.
Why I think it's the XG... If I remove the XG from my network and plug in my D-Link DIR850L Router, I can access the smart switches remotely with no problem.
Thank you in advance.
