This is all the debug information I get (running PortMapper 2.1.1) I don't know how to resolve the issue, please advise.

Hi Anonymous,

please follow the troubleshooting guide at https://github.com/kaklakariada/portmapper#troubleshooting

Kind regards,

Hello Christoph,
I followed the guide to no avail, but I have since found that having a network bridge active on the computer prevents detection of a gateway, this is none the less a great software tool, thank you for using your time to develop it.
Best regards,

Great to hear, thanks for the feedback! I will add this to the troubleshooting guide.

Bold written IP is correct.

I want to use the Portmapper for DS-Lite. I do have a second internet connection with 13 IPs (/28) where to put your Portmapper on a server. The router to this network does have the internal IP 192.168.178.3, not .1
