Teltonika TRB500
Question about Teltonika TRB500
Port forwarding does not work, the whole network collapses at regular intervals (not even access to the router is possible). I actually want to send it back. Unless someone can tell me if there's anything special to watch out for when configuring the firewall. It doesn't explain why everything regularly crashes. I even had to reboot once from the button on the front of the device because nothing worked anymore.

What exactly is "crashing" with you? You can set up the 4/5G modem to restart regularly. Otherwise, you can also set up a passthrough so that you have the IP of the mobile network directly on your target device. Alternatively, you could set up a DMZ. Since this is a gateway, I would recommend you to use a dedicated firewall behind it. As a router, I would recommend this device: Teltonika RUTX50 article number

I use the device as a simple bridge, with a firewall behind it.
The device has been running continuously for weeks without any errors. Performance as on the first day.

I don't use port forwarding, but the TRB500 for internet access and as an openvpn client. openvpn config was difficult, but it runs stable with the Mikrotik CPE (openvpn server). It's my first Teltonika product and I'm satisfied so far. VPN config examples could be better described.

you have to ask for support from digirec. but they don't know what they are selling, so you have to contact teltonika directly - they don't have end user support, contact them via contact form in english. ask for the developer firmware version TRB5_T_H744_00.07.04.112 or newer. i don't know if it is already on their website for download. but yes, sending it back is also a good idea. huge hassle with the box.
