Thank you both for the rich discussion. As @YrbkMgr mentioned de-selecting LAN Only does indeed work. So for my understanding will deselecting the LAN Only option effect my attack plain ?

@pqRec thanks for the link.

Can either of you point me to a port scanner that you would not hesitate to use ?

Uncheck LAN access only, and put the external IP address into the list of IP's granted authentication. The web server authentication limits who can access the server, regardless of LAN/WAN origin. I have functionally disabled all WAN access by only allowing addresses on my LAN using +192.168.1.*

Yes. Advanced IP Scanner. Advanced IP Scanner is compliant with Microsoft's highest security standards. The download allows you to install it or run it as a portable app. I use the latter.
