I have push working on two devices when they are on the LAN. Nothing on WAN. I can connect to the server via the phone app or a web browser while on the WAN, so the port forwarding is working.

When I test the push notification (via the test button in the BI UI) then it says 'pushed to one device' when one device is on the wan and one on the LAN, the LAN device gets the notification. When I test with both devices on the LAN then is says 'pushed to two devices' and both get notifications.

Is the push feature only working with devices on the LAN? How would the server know about my phone when I am not on my internal network?
