I have the following error for all the satellites:

ERROR contact:service ping satellite failed

I check my firewall setting. I pinged the port and ip from the internet and it works. I update the storj software. I am not sure what is causing this issue.

How did you ping the port? Did you open your storagenode host:port in a web browser? Do you have any errors in the log?

On the node are you able to do: ping 1.1.1.1  
And if so, is this also running: ping [www.google.com](http://www.google.com)

Did you already reboot your node?  
Are you really sure portforwarding is right?  
No change of IP-address by your ISP?

I used on online scanner. I entered the ip and the port.

yes, I can ping 1.1.1.1 from the node macheine  
Yes, I rebooted multiple times  
The port forwarding was working before and the scan indicates it is still working.  
I had a power outage and my ip changed but I update my ip to match. I didn’t have time to set up a domain name yet.

Also pinging [www.google.com](http://www.google.com) did work out?  
Did you double check the IP and port-number?  
Why not using duckdns or something alike?  
What is your docker statement, of do you have another setup?

yes, I can ping google.  
yes the port 28967 is forwarded.  
duckdns seems nice. I will try it once I get my node back online!  
It is not in docker, it is directly on windows 10. I do not have another set up.

Please use this check-list:

Please, compare it with IP there: [https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/](https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/) , they should match Local IP in the port forwarding rule, it should be the same as IP of your PC with storagenode nslookup your.ddns.address 8.8.8.8 should return the same IP as p.1 If you do not have a DDNS hostname, it’s time to create it: [Step 3.
