Portforwarding

Yes - You're behind an extra layer of NAT basically. I know a lot of our wireless service has the same complaints. They can easily set up a static IP for it and bypass nat entirely on their side and then he can port forward as normal.

It's POSSIBLE some providers wont do a static but based on the price most charge it'd be easier to just get a vps lol.

Back when I was a bit younger (few years, say around 6 years ago) when I got internet for the first time I didn't get a global ip. I had some 10.[][][].[][][].[][][] ip that was like a intra-net, and it had nothing to do with a router because I didn't have one back then. I think the OP has the same issue.

If that's OP case, he can get a VPN service that provides a static IP and port forwarding options. I know there are out there a few VPN providers that can deliver this kind of service.

ziggo and tele2 should provide static ip's (ziggo is my provider 2). pm me if you have any trouble port forwarding or if you need assistance in dutch

Ziggo and Tele2 do provide static IP addresses but in this case you wouldn't need it.

As far as I know every X years ISPs change the IP, but all it changes for you would be the external IP.
Let's say your external IP is 19.16.1.1 it could end up being 19.33.1.5 after a few years. So in order to keep it 19.16.1.1 you most likely have to pay that little extra in order to keep it like that.

Small, simple explanation in dutch for OP to understand what he has to do.

1. Vind je gateway adres d.m.v. CMD commando: ipconfig (het is trouwens meestal 192.168.1.254)
2. In deze zelfde lijstje heb je je IPv4 adres dat dan ook waarschijnlijk begint met: 192.1... Bewaar dit want je hebt het dalijk nodig.
3. Ga in je browser naar dat adres en log in. Als je je gegevens niet weet zou ik contact opnemen met je provider.
4. Je hebt ergens een optie voor NAT / Port Forwarding
5. Voeg een nieuwe regel toe, bij IP voer je het IPv4 adres in die je net hebt bewaard en bij poort voer je het desbetreffende poort in. Voor Conquer zijn het meestal:
9958,9959,5816,5817.

Nadat je alle poorten hebt toegevoegd zou je automatisch moeten kunnen verbinden met je externe IP adres. Op [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] kun je je externe IP adres vinden.

Vergeet trouwens niet om de poorten in je firewall op je computer te openen.

Im now at the point that i found out how to forward.
I follow every step from the tutorial of my router, but when i chek if they are open they are still closed

What is the IP Address your router is reporting?

If it is not 172.16.x.x-172.31.x.x, 192.168.x.x, or 10.x.x.x, then you have a public IP address and your ISP just blocks outbound ports.

If it is one of the aforementioned above address ranges, you're on carrier-grade NAT and with your current setup, out of luck.

i have the 192.168...
So i can't portforward with it? :S

Did you open the ports on your windows firewall?
