Hi all! This is my first post on the forums and I'm hoping to find some help.
I've ran Severs in the past and I'm having a problem hosting a minecraft server today that I couldn't seem to solve.
Here are the things I've tried:
Port forward to 25565
Port forward to a few different ports
I've connected from my computer using my internal ip address (192.168.1.xxx)
The only thing I can't do is connect externally. I've made sure the port forwarding is correct and the ip matches the computers (I have a static IP set to 192.168.1.150). When attempting to connect to the sever, the connection times out and when I check the ports on port scanners it comes up as closed. Here's a screenshot of my port forward in the netgear web interface... http://imgur.com/Fk9nse0
I'm running Windows 8 64-bit btw.
Any help is appreciated.
