It takes place in an alternate universe where magic, myth and technology coexists. If compared to our timeline, it's probably an apocalyptic future where a lot of civilizations were wiped out, perhaps natural/magical disasters. The existence of magic skews the possibility that it took place before our current time, and some have already mentioned, redstone.
Okay, then we know it's some firewall/protocol restriction somewhere. I'm not too knowledgeable on that, but you'll have to figure and test that out. Good luck!
I've had some bad experiences with hybrid routers but usually it's on setups where I had it connected to another router. It's less likely a firewall, but it's also possible, disable your firewall for testing and if that works try add an exception for Java.exe.
That still sounds like it could be your ISP limiting client connections--if you're able to ping your port from an external site but not be able to connect to your server from externally.
If you're connecting from another computer on the same LAN and it doesn't connect, that would most likely be a firewall issue if everything else is right.
The most likely problem is your ISP limiting client connections from outside your LAN. Hopefully you have a modem and not a modem/router hybrid, those could still cause some issues which require either bridging or DMZ.
Also, make sure you're using the WAN IP to connect from the outside, if you already did that then disregard this.

I haven't migrated yet, is it that excruciating? I don't want to give out my phone out to them either.

Is that other PC outside your LAN or within it? And are they all on the same subnet?
