I set up my Prox Mox install on a home server and its connected to my home router. I finished the initial setup but when I try to access it through the web gui I get connection refused. I have opened port 8006 on my computer with in and out bound rules. I tried to port forward with my router but sadly have an xfinity router so i can't get too in depth. Has anyone had experience setting up there's with a commercial router and what they had to do to allow the port 8006 connection?

Disregard, I was using wifi for the connection but went and ran an ethernet cable. Now it works. Don't know why but it works.
