I’m using a Mikrotik Routerboard 450G and since a day or so I stopped using a split DNS approach to access the blog on the LAN. I’ve implemented a Hairpin NAT schema, but I’m having some issues. I can see running tcpdump that the web request from within the LAN to the public IP originate from the router, but I’m experiencing timeouts on some request only from within the LAN. Looks like the roundtrip gets stuck in the router.
Will have to investigate some more.
