Is your DSL modem bridged to your router? Most DSL modems nowadays have built in firewalls that won't release your WAN IP address to your router until you bridge it. I had the same problem cause my server is on DSL home-based and i'm using no-ip.org. You can port forward all you want but unless you bridge the modem to the router allowing it to get the WAN IP address, the modem will block all connections but local connections. Try calling your ISP and ask them how to bridge them cause different ISPs call it different things and have different ways to bridge. I hope this was helpful and good luck with your server.

Yeah, Mitsukee and I did get lucky, I had to call my ISP and they walked me through the steps to bridge my DSL modem to my router which then allowed WAN connections. Seems nowadays ISPs are packing the modems themselfs with firewalls built in. Perhaps this could be useful to anyone who was or is having this problem. My ISP called it bridging but other ISPs might call it differently.

Mitsukee and I can log in locally on different computers with the LAN address of the server computer, but it won't allow WAN connections. All ports are forwarded correctly, no firewall but still players can't connect. Is there something we are missing?
