My first order of business - When on WiFi at his home/lodge, the app for his Milestone cameras says "Cannot Connect To Server"...I verified this and sure enough, when on the WiFi here, it won't connect. If I jump to 4G, it connects...if I use my home WIFi or at work it connects. Any suggestions on what to check to see why it is only being blocked on the WiFi here? Something in the UniFi GUI that I could fix? Or the new router I purchased?
Where is the 'server'? is is something on that network at his house? or something in the cloud?
Does accessing the internet work for things like gmail?
Milestone server is a PC located in one of his 3 switch rooms on a 192.168.1.10 address. It has always broadcasted to a the Milestone XProtect Mobile app. And it still does. Just won't connect to the DNS name when on the local WiFi...if you drop to 4G, it works...if back on WiFi and I set a connection to that 192 address, it works...just not with the primary DNS name when on his WiFi.
Because DNS

You have a Unifi Wifi AP, what is the firewall?

Yup, that's necessary for the DNS setup being used.

Exactly - thanks.
I know old Cisco PIX were not able to do that. Not sure ASA can. And no clue what the OP has for a firewall now...
*edit - found the post/picture - OP has a ER-X from Ubiquiti.
-
this article should help you configure the ER-X to enable hairpining.

Update...
We were able to get out of the contract and surprisingly, Verizon fixed their tower and we are back on the Pepwave again.

@travisdh1 Bingo. Satellite is going to have delay.

This showed on my FYP at TikTok today. It is cute and informative about a similar PepWave device

Yep. Starlink is going to change that in a HUGE way. They're in beta right now, and seeing latency in the 20ms to 40ms range.

My sons new house is out of reach for many services other than cellular or satellite. He has signed up to be a beta tester....

My wireless radio internet is 60ms, I pre-ordered starlink a couple of weeks ago.
