CloroxBleach Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 So I have an error with my server for a modpack. I have all the mods installed on the server correctly, weeded out the client side mods, and done everything right. I can connect to my server easily but friends from a different router can't. I have tried almost every method I have seen. I have port forwarded my IPV4 address with ports TCP and UDP 25565. I have added port rules on firewall for 25565. I have allowed Java SE Binary, javaw.exe and minecraft through firewall. I know a lot of people said to keep server.properties blank, but the minecraft says you can have it set to whatever you want for an IP that everyone connects to. I've tried putting my external ip in the ip address, i've tried it with nothing there, i've tried port forwarding my external Ip, i've tried near everything I could think of and find on any forum sites. Yet, my friends still gets the Connection Timed Out error. Anybody know a fix? Is it a problem on my friend's side? Please help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AetherPirate Posted August 17, 2016 Moderators Share Posted August 17, 2016 Take the IP out of server.properties, and try putting your server's internal LAN ip into the router's DMZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloroxBleach Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 (edited) By internal LAN ip, you mean my ipv4, the one which I use to connect? Also, i'm not sure how to put that into my router's "DMZ". Or what a DMZ is. Sorry If I'm a bit ignorant on the subject.

CloroxBleach Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 Ok, so I found out how to add an IP into my DMZ, but do I add my IPV4 or my external IP address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CloroxBleach Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 So this will do what to help the problem? I put my IPV4 as the Ip and checked off the Local Ip Address box and got an error saying: Input Errors - The host does not belong to any recognized LAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AetherPirate Posted August 17, 2016 Moderators Share Posted August 17, 2016 Are you sure you are putting in the right IP, its probably 192.168.1.x, or 192.168.0.x, or 192.168.2.x, or 10.x.x.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloroxBleach Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 Yep. I even checked what it was on CMD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AetherPirate Posted August 17, 2016 Moderators Share Posted August 17, 2016 what model is your router? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators AetherPirate Posted August 17, 2016 Moderators Share Posted August 17, 2016 Is that the only router? That error sounds like you are putting in the IP of a device that is not on its network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloroxBleach Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 Nope. Our last router died, and the one we have now is new. I had actually set up a server for a different modpack a long time ago, and it worked. I don't know what the problem is now, though. For some reason, I was experimenting with multiple servers. It seems one of them, which I think may be the one that worked, had online mode turned to false. Do I need to do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AetherPirate Posted August 17, 2016 Moderators Share Posted August 17, 2016 Your new router is probably 192.168.1.1, is the IP of your server 192.168.1.x? Describe how things are hooked up there now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloroxBleach Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 So in ipconfig on cmd, it says my default gateway is 192.168.7.1, but I can only access my router configuration page with 192.168.1.1. The Local/IPV4 of my server is 192.168.7.x. On previous servers I made, it was 192.168.1.x. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AetherPirate Posted August 17, 2016 Moderators Share Posted August 17, 2016 Does your server have a static LAN IP, or are you using DHCP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloroxBleach Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 Well, I don't quite know if my current IP is static or dynamic. My old IPs(pulural), example: 192.168.1.11, were always changing, therefore dynamic. But, my IP has stayed at 192.168.7.x for as long as I can remember having the new router. I also checked in CMD via ipconfig /all and DHCP was set to no, further proving it is now a static IP. So I guess I have a static IP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AetherPirate Posted August 17, 2016 Moderators Share Posted August 17, 2016 set your server ip to a static of 192.168.1.200 mask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.1.1 dns 192.168.1.1 and then verify it still has internet access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloroxBleach Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 You seem a lot more advanced than me, can you walk me through how to do the parts I don't understand? set your server ip to a static of 192.168.1.200 So, put the ip above in server.properties? mask 255.255.255.0 Already is gateway 192.168.1.1 Not sure how to change my default gateway to that, when in CMD it's already 192.168.7.1 dns 192.168.1.1 Also not sure where to find this and change it. and then verify it still has internet access.

Moderators AetherPirate Posted August 17, 2016 Moderators Share Posted August 17, 2016 No, not in server.properties, this is all windows networking stuff. What version of Windows are you running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CloroxBleach Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 So once i've done that, how will I find what my dns is and change my default gateway? Are you sure this will make my server work? It says change everything to my network settings, aka IPV4 192.168.7.x, Default gateway 192.168.7.1, subnet mask 255.255.255.0, not what you said. Also, what should I put in for the Preffered DNS server address Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AetherPirate Posted August 17, 2016 Moderators Share Posted August 17, 2016 Our goal is to change the IP of your server so its in the same network as your Verizon router. Your Verizon router is a 192.168.1.x network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloroxBleach Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 (edited) So my question is, where did the .7 come from? Surely it couldn't have come from nowhere. Edited August 17, 2016 by CloroxBleach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AetherPirate Posted August 17, 2016 Moderators Share Posted August 17, 2016 If its a static address, then someone had to manually type it in at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
