MC server port forwarding help
12 hours ago, BobbyDaButt said:I did it but after i set it to be static it wouldn't connect to the internet at all, so i set it back to dynamic. But I havent restarted my PC after port fowarding and ipconfig in CMD still says that its the same as the port fowarded ip.
We have an ASUS RT-AC88u router.
The server is plugged directly into the router via ethernet
Is your Asus router the only router on your network or do you also have an ISP provided modem router? You might have a double NAT which means you need to forward the port on your modem to your ASUS router and then from the ASUS router to the Minecraft server.
Connect the modem and Asus router lan-to-lan* and disable DHCP to remove the double NAT situation, if applicable.
*LAN-to-LAN means you put an ethernet cable from a LAN port on your modem router to a LAN port on the Asus, not the WAN port.
