Yes, I was going to ask why you were using port range forwarding for a single port, that doesn't make sense and will probably not work. Now, the question is, is the router configured as an AP in router mode? If it is not in gateway mode (which is default), it won't make a difference what you do, AFAIK.... _________________ "Life is but a fleeting moment, a vapor that vanishes quickly; All is vanity"

It is just one port so you do not have to use the range port fowarding although it should work.
Did you reboot the router ?
Yes, its just one port, but i just copied what was on my main router. And, yes, i did reboot the second router, and it still dosent lets the port 25565 go through.

If you say... I just configured again the port forward but this time, only one port to be forwarded. This is the config:
Is that config ok? I read a bit of what was the source net, and i think that what i've inputed is ok, right?
Ive rebooted the router and it still dosent works.

Then port forwarding won't work. You have to be in the default gateway mode. Your ISP router should be forwarding the port to the IP you wish it to be forwarded to if you are in router mode for wired AP config. This is why you're having problems... _________________ "Life is but a fleeting moment, a vapor that vanishes quickly; All is vanity"

Sorry, i did not understand what you said. Do yo mean that i have to change to gateway mode instead of router mode, and in theory it should work fine? If thats what you ment, it didnt worked, even after a reboot.

It took some looking, but if you have access to the configuration settings on your ISP router, you can set up the port forward there:
I do have acces to my ISP router, the thing is that they seem to have another barrier against port forward, that i think that is located on their internet central. I tried on previous occasions unlocking them by myself, but i didnt succesfuly exposed my server to the internet, i only exposed it to my isp.

If you are trying to port scan your WAN from your LAN, it probably won't show up...
But, why? I mean, if i connect my phone (because thats what im using to chech if the ports are open) to my isp router via wifi, and then i scan for open ports on my 2nd router, why wouldnt it show as open?
Also, a little side note, if what you say about scanning ports of my WAN from my LAN actually dosent works, i decided to make sure that my ports are open, because i checked on the open ports list of my isp router, and what i asked for wasnt there
If people on the internet cannot connect to your minecraft server by IP address,
then there is nothing you will be able to do since it is on your ISP.
Your ISP router has to forward the port(s) to your LAN, regardless. There may
be some convoluted iptables way of making this work, but I'm not going to invest the time in it.
Yes, thats exatly what im trying to do . I really wish i can solve this problem about forwarding before friday so i have time to set the server up to play with my friends hehe. Also, my isp responded me and they told me that they will unlock the ports between tomorrow and friday, so, ill have to wait to continue testing. I have to ask, is there any other way to test if my 2nd router is really forwarding my ports? I still dont trust that if its lan-lan it will acually dont need to set up any forwarding rules. Should i try to use DMZ on the second router?

If it's set up as a wired AP in router mode, you do NOT need to set up any port forwarding in DD-WRT. All you need to do is forward the ports properly on your ISP router. _________________ "Life is but a fleeting moment, a vapor that vanishes quickly; All is vanity"
