Port connection times out

mandred · 08-08-2009, 05:11 PM

I have a D-Link router. I am trying to set this up so I can run a server off a wireless computer.

I have forwarded port 2593 (the port the server is using). When I go to Open Port Check Tool it connects, but the connection times out.

I can connect to the server via 127.0.0.1

Windows firewall is turned off

I've tried setting the PC to DMZ in the router

What else do I have to do?

Hi and welcome to TSF!
What is the make and model of your modem? (The device that connects to the WAN port of the D-link router.)
