Port 7171-7172 problem

Okay well, recently I have been having problems with port forwarding ports 7171 and 7172. I know I have port forwarded them properly too. The only port that seems to be working is the port 80. Every time I do a port check 7171/7172 come up as "STEALTH". Does anyone know anything that might be stopping it from opening?

Yes, I have disabled all the firewalls. I am sure the problem is not firewall related nor incorrect port forwarding.
 
I tried that too, it doesn't work! :(, I have tried almost everything other than calling the ISP, and I am 100% they are not blocking it.
 
Strange, before I start my server it shows that the service couldn't see me by port 7171 but when my server is running it can.
Try this site and tell what it says Open Port Check Tool

Also post your connection part of config.lua (ports and others, hide passwords and so on).
 
Yeah I check it when the server is up and it says connection timed out. I can login fine with 127.0.0.1.

if u have portforwarded in the router, try to restart the router too (had that problem too), but worked after restarting the router.
 
Okey, just read that you can connect to 127.0.0.1 (aka Loopback)....
You can't connect your own computer with the global ip :P

If you ask someone else, who is outside of your network to connect your server :p

To be more precise:
Trying to connect the server (With the same computer) shall use Loopbacl ip - 127.0.0.1 (WILL ALWAYS BE THE SAME AT ALL COMPUTERS!)
Trying to connect the server (At the same network as your server) shall use the Network IP - 192.168.0.2 (Can vary, sometimes it's 192.168.1.XXX, or maybe 10.0.0.XXX, I have also seen ppls with 12.0.2.2)
Trying to connect the server (Outside of your network) Shall use your global IP - The ip you can get from: mittip.se, whatismyip.org, just name it....

add them to your firewall's exceptions list

Yes I know. x.x
 
I have the same problem. How can this be solved, anyone?
EDIT: For me the ports opened when I in the config.lua made the ip say "0.0.0.0", to avoid the loopback.
 
Ok for people who don't know how to open ports: Goto your modem, goto firewall, add ports 7171 - 7171 and port 7172 - 7172 and then on your computer open your firewall and add an exception to 7171 - 7171 and 7172 - 7172 and once that is done goto Open Port Check Tool and see if your ports are blocked, if you did it correctly they should be open and visible. (Plus it will post your IP there too so make sure it matches your IP on your Config.lua )
