AJAX error while port fowarding

[xHOBOPHOBIAx]

I have my duet wifi set up with static ip and fowarding the port to an external 8081 port. When I try to access it from outside of my network the web interface displays but I can't login to the duet and it gives an AJAX error. Error reason: Not authorized. is there something I need to do on my browser side?

Which versions of the firmware and DWC are you using? A change was made at version 2.0 and 1.21.1 so that DWC supplies the password again when it gets that response.

I'm probably still on 1.19. I'll have to check once I get home.

I updated to the newest firmwares. The error appears to have gone away. Will check more times over the next couple of days and respond back if the error comes back.

@xhobophobiax Please ensure you have some additional security in place. If you forward the Duet does not use HTTPS so the communication between you and the Duet is not secure. It would be easy for someone else on the external network (or internet if you are forwarding to the internet!) to control the printer - possibly damaging it or putting it in a dangerous state. I highly recommend using a VPN or a secured connection to a machine on the local network and then control the duet that way.
