Port forwarding

[Leon_Mokomaki]

Okay so im trying to forward my port... the guide says that i have to have a static IP. Okay so i followed the guide to turn your IP to static and it worked. Then i opened the right ports for my new static ip but all the "open port" checkers still say that its not open. lol. followed all of the guides from www.PortForward.com and double checked.. any solutions?

Did you open them from your firewall too?

[Leon_Mokomaki]

Cant find any way to do so on Sygate personal firewall

Do you have a DSL modem + a router?

[Leon_Mokomaki]

Well yeah, if i didnt then i wouldt of been able to turn my ip to static would i? dunno.. But i found out it wasnt cause of my firewall because when i was uninstalling my old one to install zone alarm it still didnt work when i had no firewall at all.

also opened the port i want to use with my new static ip from my router control panel.. followed the instructions from portforward.com

Problem still not solved :/

If you have even close to mine settings..

NAT > Port Forwarding.

Set those there and press "Apply"

[Leon_Mokomaki]

Yes thats exactly where ive opened the port :P

Make sure you type the right port, and your 192.168.xx.xx IP.. Otherwise it won't work, believe me

[Leon_Mokomaki]

Yeah yeah ive typed everything right and checked everything about 10 times not a newb

How you did you try port is not open?
IMO, some programs are unrealiable to test it, best is to set up game-server and see if anyone can connect there through that port..

Tried with Utorrent, PFchecker(www.portforward.com's own checker) And www.canyouseeme.org
