Hello. I am trying to port forward a minecraft server but it is not working. I can't connect to it and port checker says its closed. My isp is mctv. Also worth noting is that there is also a dd-wrt router connected in bridge mode as a secondary router. If there is any other info you need to try and solve this please tell me.
a screen shot of the port forward settings would help. I havent really had any problems with port forwarding on the primary router on the 7800. On the secondary you have to do some tricks if its double nat or whatever.
For example...say i forward 112233 to 8080 on my device at 192.168.0.49...thats easy to tell on the port forward page if its setup correctly. If its on the secondary device, you might have to forward on both devices depending on how you have it setup so screenshots help
