Is TFTP allowed (or blocked) through the WAN port?
I'm trying to download a phonebook to a phone using it's TFTP client thru a node from my local server via the WAN port.
I can connect http but tftp times out.

[update: read your question too fast, so this is an answer to a different question :) -- answered the 'incoming' on the wan to the mesh network protocol question.]
By default only 'scp' is available to copy files over the WAN interface on port 2222 .

If I'm reading this correct and the phone book is on a TFTP server located on a server reachable via the the node WAN port and the phone is on the node LAN port there should not be any block.
However a mesh node does masquerade(NAT) the connection and I don't know off hand if TFTP is one of those protocols that needs a helper to pass through NAT.
Yea, there's "nf_conntrack_tftp" to config. UDP and a dynamic port on the server picked to push the data back to the client.
Need to find this package for Barrier Breaker: https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/devel/packages/kmod-ipt-nathelper to install...
There is an option under Admin "Download Package" for "kmod-ipt-nathelper-extra 3.10.49-1". Will have to dig further to know if this is the right one and will do the trick.
I also discovered that the GS3240 would register to an internet VOIP provider. That is, with the phone on the mesh. I enabled the STUN option on the phone and was able to complete a VOIP call over the internet (at least to their test number). I will post some more in the VOIP forum group.
