Port Forwarding Not working- Hosting Listen Server

[Gen Annoyance]

Yeah, so I forwarded all the ports portforward told me to, and people are still my server is still not responding. What ports have you guys forwarded? I did 4380 and 27000-27050

send them your external IP, not your internal

[Gen Annoyance]

What?

[gmaster]

Go to [url]www.ipchicken.com[/url] and give them that IP, not your "192.168.2.5" or whatever IP. It should look like "86.161.135.125" and shouldn't start with "192.168.2..."

Yea ive been trying to get a listen going for months, forwarding my ports and what not, and just the other day found out about the external ip trick. Works every time now.
