I used to be happy like you, but then my servers took an error to their connections.
To start, I am like many of the thousands of people who have tried setting up a server only to have his friends get the "cannot connect to server" error with a X covering the connection status bars. I used port forwarding, and there went 3 hours. After inputting random copied number after random copied number into random boxes that seemed to fit logically, I was about to give up. Then It magically worked and i didn't write down what I did. So one day (months later), I check the server. It was disconnected. fml, restart the server and then: fml! friends can't connect. I waited a day, then another, checking my friends' connection statuses each day and: FML!!!???!!! they still couldn't connect. I messed with internet stuff and port forwarding, tried hamachi, shed some tears, lost some hair and finally quit. Now I want to start a youtube channel with friends and FML I STILL CAN'T FIX THE DERN CONTRATPIONATION-MABIGGOPABOPPER!!!!
Seariously though, canyouseeme.org can't see my ports or anything. I've tried this with several different server types including, but not limited to: Horizons, Unleashed and Ultimate (Ultimate being the original functional server). The local IP used for communication with the router and localhost both function as usable server addresses for my own personal use, but it won't work if I input my computer's actual IP address. Also, my friends can't connect. Port forward info. is posted below. So is rest of Information.
Port Forward Info.:
Service Type: TCP/UDP
External Starting Point: 25565
External Ending Point: 25565
(Checkbox) Use the Same Port Range for Internal Port: Checked
IP Address: 192.168.1.9
Computer IP Info.:
IPv4: 192.168.1.9
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1
DNS Servers: 192.168.1.1
For Privacy's sake i refuse to hand out the actual IP of my computer. I am so sick and tired of all of this thinking and what not. I just want to get on with playing the game with my friends already plox ;_; Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
