This used to work but now if I try to setup a port forward for port 80 or 443 the hub gives an error message "Sorry! There was an error while updating your settings. Please try again a bit later."
If I try to forward and use external port 81, or 444 then no problem, which leads me to believe that perhaps this is a permanent block of some kind?
My HUB 5 info shows as:

On same version of Hub but cannot replicate issue:
What happens if you try to create a rule that overlaps the port, i.e. port 79 to 81?

Guess new firmware and VM think an attacker gets hold of the hubs network and sets up a bad web server....or maybe UPnP has them open?
So if you want them ports go look for a router and put hub in modem mode.

It seems that this "issue" is because a machine on the network has added a Upnp time for the port forward but for some reason the hub UI had stopped showing ports assigned via Upnp.
I KNOW it's Upnp as if I disabled it I am then able to manually add the rule.
So it seems that the problem isn't that I can't add the rule, but rather than the HUB5 UI had stopped showing Upnp applied port forwarding...

Hi Schmill,
Thanks for posting, and sorry to hear you're having some hub issues. I can see you've mentioned doing a full reset, can you confirm if you've done this?
