Hi there.


I am trying to make a server for a game but my only problem is getting the router ports to work, I open the ports in the router but although I open them they are not functional when I go to check the port the site says it doesn't exist.


Router model: EG8145V5

Sites I am using: https://ipchicken.com/ to see the external IP, https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ port checker.


Thanks.

Hello, friend!


Based on the information you provided, I made a sketch.

Port mapping


The port mapping function allows intranet server to be opened to external networks. (For example, a WWW server or FTP server is provided for the external network.) You can map the IP address and service port number of the intranet host to the IP address and port number of the extranet so that extranet users can access the intranet server. In this case, the external network user cannot view the internal IP address but can view the mapped external IP address to provide services.


After reading the configuration screenshot you provided, this is not a problem. However, it should be noted that because the remote terminal and the Game Server (Servidor-PC) are not in the same network, I assume that your WAN IP address is 100.100.100. To remotely access the Game Server (Servidor-PC), you need to access http://100.100.100.100: 27015 on the remote terminal.


If you still cannot access it, you need to check the following:


1. Check whether the WAN IP address of the ONT is correct or valid.


2. If you are a home network user, forwarded packets pass through the ISP network. Due to security restrictions, forwarded packets may be filtered by the ISP and cannot be accessed.


Thanks!

Hi friend!


Can you tell me exactly which port you'd like to open on the device?


Generally, the virtual port of the ONT is enabled by default before delivery and cannot be enabled automatically. If the ONT port cannot be accessed, the possible causes are as follows: 


  • the port is a well-known port or a port that provides services, so the port is occupied and cannot be accessed due to a service conflict;

  • device security prevents access;

  • the device is a customized version and the port is disabled before delivery.


Thanks!

Hi, i'm trying to open 27015 (it's a default and recommended port for Valve games)

I don't know what your specific configuration is. If you can provide a screenshot of your configuration page, the port may be a well-known port or a port that provides services. As a result, the port is occupied and cannot be accessed due to service conflicts.

Hi friend.


You are using the same external port number.

When multiple port forwarding is configured, you need to specify different external port numbers.

Please modify and try again. 

You can refer to this post for questions similar to the one you have, which may be helpful:
