I used to run a server for my friends and I a few years ago, and we want to set it up again but this time I'm having a few issues.
I'm almost positive I did everything right, the portforwarding, setting up the server, but when I try to connect to it I get the "Java.net.ConnectException: Connection times out: no further information:" error. Now I know there's at least something done right because I can connect to the server using localhost, and my brother can connect to the server using my IPv4 address, but using my public IP neither of us can join and none of our friends can. I'm pretty sure it's not a problem with the portforwarding because I get the
"Success: I can see your service on **.**.***.** on port (25565)
Your ISP is not blocking port 25565"
message on canyouseeme(dot)org. Any help is greatly appreciated, and any more questions I can gladly answer!!! thank you guys in advance!!!
Also, system specs are certainly above what is necessary (mobile i7, 650m sli, 12gb ram) and my java is running the newest version. Server is 1.8.7 and so is the game itself. Optifine is installed and is running 1.8.4 but it wasn't used to join the server, nor would it after all else had failed.
Okay so apparently it is working, I guess when I want to join I have to use my IPv4 address to connect, everyone else can use my public IP. Apparently the person testing the server just mistyped the IP. Still, this sounds a little weird to me and I feel as though something is still off. If someone sees something fishy with this, please let me know
