Node can't switch to up and running state without manual step after reboot

[smith111707]

The "Pinging your computer" checkbox never becomes checked until I press the "Check now" button. And it becomes checked once I press the "Check now" button. WINDOWS 10.0.19043 (Windows 10 Pro)

as long as you check ports using https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ it is fine. No need to check ports again. Make sure and run command

docker ps -a it should say it is up and run netstat -an | findstr 314

from command line make sure ports are listening

hello, I have the same problem (like smith111707) I installed and reinstalled the Docker when i try to push "Check Now" the "Pinging your computer" isn't green

I did the all actions

• port forward in my modem/router
• firewall rules for ports 31400-31409
• I ran the command "netstat -an | findstr 314" and looks ok
• I checked the ports 31400-31409 using https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ and all ports are open

I need to do other actions ?

I have a similar issue and did all the above items and still have the greyed out "Pinging your computer" area.

When I ran "netstat -an | findstr 314" I see "close_wait".

Can someone tell me if this is the issue and what I need to do to resolve it?

Thank you in advance.

Netstat confirms that your Node PC is listening on ports 31400-31409. You can ignore the port in close_wait state. What you need to do next is check if your node's listener ports are accessible from the outside world. To do this click the orange Check Now button. You can also use an external tool like the ipfingerprints site to double-check this:- https://www.ipfingerprints.com/portscan.php

If you still have any problems, you may want to open your own separate issue thread and post a screenshot of your node's troubleshooting screen. (If/when posting pics from ip/port scanners like ipfingerprints, please mask your public ip address)

My ports are open and seem fine. It is the PING that I'm having challenges with. Can you point me to a post or article to help me with this part?
