I've been trying to port forward my router to minecrafts port 25565, but everytime I attempt to do so I get the "connection timed out" error from both the website 'canyouseeme.com' and from when my friends try to join my public IP. I have disabled my firewall incase that was blocking it, as well as tried putting my PC in DMZ, and even tried opening the port onto a different device, none of these worked for me. I have an xfinity router and modem and on the port forwarding tab, it says that the port forwarding was complete, but when I got to canyouseeme.com or minecraft, it tells me that connection timed out. Can someone please help?

Post screenshots of your portforwarding. Which IP address do you test/let your friend connect to?
