Mechanic machine keeps disconnecting from the internet

Good day, everyone. I do hope all are keeping safe during this pandemic.

I recently did a camera installation for a business that had a couple garage machine connected to the network. After install the cameras and changing a couple things in the router with port forwarding and access control settings. One of the garage machine was using port 8080, which I didn't know, so I used that same port in my port forwarding rule, then the owner called me back saying that the machine wasn't working so I went back there and reversed what I did, but now the connection between the router and the machine keeps dropping. There was no port forwarding rule for the machine by they way.. it was using some proxy settings. Tomorrow I'm going there to use a direct connection, because it was connected via Wi-Fi.

Please to assist if you can, family. God bless.

Hi sorry for my ignorance, though why did you need to use port forwarding in the first place? Also why was the system using a Proxy? Did you set up this network in the first place? I so despise going to jobs when someone else has configured the network.

I would just reboot everything and do the network my way. That way I can pinpoint issues in future without wasting time ferreting around for unknown issues.

I had to use port forwarding, because at the time there was no 64bit software for macbook, only 32bit, and the client wanted the ability to remotely view his cameras on is MacBook, but I contacted lorex Technology and got the 64bit software, so no need to use port forwarding. No, I was not the one that configured the network, just went there to install the cameras, and after the camera installation the machine keeps disconnecting from the host.

What do the logs say?

I didn't check the logs, because I'm not the one that manages the machine, but there is a error message that says, "disconnected from host".

And the machine I'm referring to is the machine that is used at the garage to align the cars.
