Question

I am simply trying to setup a game server which requires ports 2456-2458 TCP/UDP forwarded to the server address.

I have added multiple configurations to attempt to force the traffic from any external source looking for 2456-2458 to the IP address of the server (192.168.2.128). I must be missing something because it's still not allowing any connection and the ports are showing blocked via a third-party tool. 

I also added a firewall rule to allow this traffic to any LAN host. Still nothing.

Anything else I can do to test or anything I should change?

Answer 1

My primary ISP is Starlink which utilizes CG-NAT. This renders port-forwarding ineffective. I may look into a VPN application but for now I will wait.
