Hello everybody, I have had a server for a month now and we are going 24/7 and are changing the host. The new host has a speedtouch router. We tried to portforward, but yougetsignal.com said the port 25565 was still closed... I think the problem lays at portforwarding. If we try to join we get the 'Can't Reach Server' error. The server-ip= is blank in the server.properties file. We tried disabling firewall totally and disabling the router's firewall, which also didnt work. This is what we did: We logged in to the router and added a game (Minecraft) and then entered the correct ports and set minecraft to the PC's ip (83.119.112.202). (<-- yea, this is pretty difficult in SpeedTouch's routers...) Does anybody know what we did wrong? Thanks in advance, 72Leroy anybody?

Why are you hosting a Minecraft server at 'home', it's higly likely that the Bandwith won't be big enough. Also, give the 'hosting pc' a static IP and forward the ports there
Well, his bandwith is great and he does it for free, so why not? The host has a static ip and forwarding is the problem... :/
