Port Forwarding problem? Please Help!

[Redbull116]

Hello I'm trying to host my server over the network (worldwide) I forwarded my ports (7171,7172,80,3306)

The server will let me login locally, if i set my config to 127.0.0.1, but after i forwarded my ports i set my config to connect to my ip address and all it does it loads the character list, never showing the list

any ideas why this is happening?

make sure your local ip (the one on the network, not localhost / 127.0.0.1) matches the one used to forward the ports

What server are you using?

Also, dont forward port 3306 as it is unsafe and not needed.

You should check if You have a DMZ option in Your router. If so, enable it and use Your IPv4 like in Port Forwarding. Also make sure You shutted off Your system firewall and antivirus protection, cuz it may block You too. If You do all these things, it should work.
