Everything in port forwarding and external access is correct
HOWEVER you cannot have ORANGE and GREEN on the same network.
IE you have 192.168.1.x for both ORANGE and GREEN, this is not
correct.
at the very least you should have 192.168.1.x GREEN
192.168.2.x ORANGE
Personnaly I use 10.10.10.x GREEN
10.10.5.x ORANGE
