Disable or allow your ports through Windows Firewall/Router's Firewall and any other services that might be blocking your ports like Internet security programs.

I have a "Telia" Sagemcom Fast5370e and port forwarding simply does not work.

You can put the router in bridged mode, then you can use the LAN 4 port to connect directly to WAN. I do this with an old router on LAN 4 and let the old router do the port forwarding until I get around to replacing the Telia router with one that actually works.

First off, it's worth noting that setting it up this way, any device connected to the old router will be on a completely different network than the ones connected to the Fast5370. You won't be able to connect across the two networks using local ip addresses.

The incoming Ethernet cable should plug into the WAN port of the Fast5370, then you put a cable from LAN 4 to WAN of the old router. You computer needs do be plugged into the old router (looks like you're using WiFi, so switch over to the old router's WiFi). Make sure you can get online so you know that everything is working so far.
Next step is to set the port forward on the old router, so check ipconfig again. Your local ip will be different than it was when connected to the Fast5370 unless you have set a static ip on the computer. Set the port forward rules in the old router using your new local ip address.

Assuming bridge mode is enabled (it took me a few tries for it it to "take", you may need to reboot the router) and the old router's port forwarding works you should be set.

I don't think that's the case, the ISP just messed too much with the firmware of the router they send out to customers. 😒

Which is absolutely typical of most ISPs 😂

But with DSL, the options for your own hardware aren't quite as good as DOCSIS. Either way, always modem should be dumb device that does no thinking for you, separate unit from router, and router should be good model without builtin modem. The combo units always suck. One that is good is like Unicorn, doesn't exist. Devices that think for you to protect you from yourself are a huge pain in the ass.

I waited my whole life to be able to find a place where I could have a good house and fiber, and it is so glorious. I will never move again.

Got the shit working now only problem is the login access to Telia from the old router doesnt works with access key XD

ALSO; if i factory reset the old router when holding in the small button will it then reset the password aswell?

Generally, yes, reseting router wipes settings, and login falls back to "admin/admin" or whatever it was when you first got it. But I've seen a few exceptions to that rule in my time.

They end up on separate networks, so to access the Telia router, you need to connect to it first. Pro tip, keep your phone on the Telia router's WiFi and use that if you need to change any settings.

Default passwords are usually printed on the label on the bottom of the router.

You can't switch back to Telia's router, your computer has to be connected to the old one. Use 127.0.0.1 to connect to the server from your computer or your global ip from anywhere else.
If you don't have TV or telephone connected through Telia's router, just unplug it and use your old router instead. The reason we have to mess around is that Telia broke the firmware, so the port forwarding rules does nothing.
The only real solution is to buy a proper router and put Telia's garbage back in the box it came in (because they will want it back).

Exactly. TP-Link AC1750 Archer 7 is 65USD in USA (about 60 Euro) and is very good affordable model. Perhaps Europe has it for comparable price?

Then see if there is guide to run one of the routers models you have now as modem only.

You haven't show much about the server you are running. Are you sure it's listening at the correct ports and has a login server? Have you tried binding the server to 0.0.0.0 in it's config?

According to that config, your server port is set to 7171, not 7272, unless you were just using for the port checker app?

Is your friend connecting to the right port?
What client version is this server?
What codebase is it?
