    I'm using a different computer, but my same router, but I can't open the ports! They used to be open but aren't now. Anyone know the problem? I also shut windows firewall completely off so that shouldn't be the issue.

    Why is the same port being forwarded to two different internal IP addresses?

    I opened another thread to actually explain my problem easier.. http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/port-fowarding-problem.112376/

    Also, there's two internal ip's because ones from my wireless (wifi chip) and another from my computer.

    You can't forward the same port to 2 different computers.

    Point the port to wherever your bukkit server is.

    Actually nevermind sorry to cause confusion. Apparently my ports open when the server starts to run, otherwise when it's off, so are the ports. Weird. Anyways it's fixed.

    Also I had 2 IP's because I'm both wired and connected with a wifi chip from my router. So if I connect via wifi I need to host with that ip. when im not, i host with my wired computer's ip.

    You should still give them each a different port then, or be willing to change the forwarding whenever you switch between the laptop and wired computer.

    You will have problems again if you make it keep trying to forward the same port to 2 machines.
