    aimjy got a reaction from papiinaction in Port Forwarding for Minecraft   
    To recap this is your set-up:
    Internet -> ISP router ( port 25565 to ORBI IP on port 25565) -> ORBI (port 25565 to your machine IP on port 25565) on both TCP and UDP?
     
    This looks fine to me, so I would look into the firewall like LamoidZobieDog suggested.
     
    But yeah, with the little information given, we can only make guesses about what might be the issue.
     
    To debug this, I would suggest you to try connecting step by step. First see if you can access the server localy in the first place, if it does then try to connect another machine to your ORBI network and see if you can connect to your minecraft server, if yes then you know your server is running properly. Then you connect your machine to your ISP router, and try to access your server by using the ORBI ip. If it works, then the ORBI is configured properly. Lastly, ask a friend to connect to your public IP to your server, if he is still unable to connect to you, then there might be an issue on your router configuration itself or with your ISP. Some ISP uses double NAT due to the IPv4 shortages, and thus in order to have a server, you would need to contact your ISP to ask them to port forward their NAT. (Which might not be possible, due to policy reasons...?). If the latter is true, then there is not a lot you can do, and might have to resort to solutions such as hamachi...
     
    What you also can try is using IPv6 if your ISP supports it. Then you only need to allow incoming traffic on both routers on port 25565. Then use the IPv6 global address of your minecraft machine to connect to. However I'm not familiar with Windows at all, so you might have to look it up.

    Yes but if the router being plugged into doesn't know how to speak (v/a/etc)DSL then it's pointless.

    THe modem won't really matter here, you just get your own router that does the load balancing here.  Don't get a modem + router combo, they kinda suck.
     
    Load balancing is morally just pick a wan port per connection, and you get to be a bit picky about which computers and services use what wan port. Im kinda a sucker for untangle, but a edge router or mikrotik box can do this too.(or basically any small buiness firewall)
     
    You can just plug a rj11 into a rj45, no adapter needed.
     
    This relly won't affect you. You don't need to change modem settings really, just have it pass traffic to yoru router.
     
     
    IM guuessing you have looked and can't find a better option like a cable provider or wisp.
