It’s still there for me in “Advanced networking”->“Port Management”.
I went to modify my 2018 Google Wi-Fi router to add a simple port forwarding rule, and the functionality is completely GONE from their already shitty Google Home app. It used to be so easy and simple on the old Wi-Fi app. I’m never buying another Google device.
This company has reached enshittification nirvana.

If you click into mine, all you see are two options both of which only serve to allow Google to Hoover more of your data.
Looking into this more a couple days ago, it seemed that without IP reservations, you can’t get the port forwarding option to appear. Which I haven’t messed with. On principal I refuse to deal with a router that has regressed in functionality and am instead dedicating my time to de-Google my life haha. I bought an openwrt compatible router this weekend. https://lemmy.today/pictrs/image/900cfd9b-ad9c-4a1c-8a41-5ce580c9b353.pnghttps://lemmy.today/pictrs/image/655586bb-2e04-42a6-97f5-75df79fb1915.png

I do have a bunch of IP reservations. I don’t really know how you’d do port forwarding without subs static IP address to forward to. I have not seen any of the data sharing options, but it could be that I gave those permissions years ago and forgot…

Google home has become an absolute shit show. It has awful UI and UX. Truly an amazing feat.
