The question is fairly simple and directly accurate to what i am having an issue with.
I already know that you open ports through Windows Firewall, however, that is not working.
Here is an image of what my server is doing, note: the ports in the firewall... lets just say, the barn doors are open, WIDE open... but none of the cows will dare go through...
I made a thread earlier about a different problem, it was sorta answered, but not answered at the same time, and then went unnoticed for a few days, i decided the best course of action was to create an on topic thread about the problem.
I cannot call Microsoft for tech support as since i have a $5.5K OS they expect me to pay $500 for them to tell me one thing about how to fix this, their business side support is dumb... and since my house has more than four computers in it, it doesn't qualify for Residential or Consumer tech support. Again, Microsoft tech support is dumb...
so bascially...
The above image shows the port that SHOULD be "Allowed, not restricted" but instead is "Not allowed, not restricted" which doesn't make any sense to me, don't you think if it weren't allowed that would be the ultimate restriction?
How (in the blood soaked protestant hell) do i get the filthy heathen known as Windows, to cooperate with this port? If you're wondering, no, this issue has NOT ever happened with all the other ports i had to open for either my game servers or teamspeak server. Unfortunately, i didn't catch the Teamspeak ports in the screen cap, but they are "Allowed, not restricted" and i haven't done anything differently.
Will try just deleting the firewall rules and making them again.
Thank you in advance, and have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
