  1. Hey everyone,
    This has probably been solved many times but with my searching I was unable to find a solution.
    (I am unfamiliar with networking but I know I am port forwarding correctly!)

    This is my issue,
    Trying to establish a private minecraft server but when I check that I have port forwarded to even begin making a server, it doesn't work closed.

    What should I do,
    It isn't uncommon for Netgear to have issues yet I can't find a solution. I know my public ip (if that is the correct term) and have completely disabled firewalls to try to port forward 25565.

    Do you need any details or screen shots? (I don't know what isn't safe to share so I haven't given much information)
    Please help if you have any ideas to fix my issue!
     
  2. are you sure you're port forwarding correctly? you need to port forward your computer IP not 25565.. if that's what you're doing
    make sure server.ip in server.properties has your computer IP
     
  3. Yeah I'm doing it right, would you like a screen shot just to clarify?

    I have this same issue, yet I still haven't found a solution.
     
  6. Amazingly my server works but when I test that the port is open is states it's closed.
