Hi, I was wondering if I could get some help with this. I have spent literally hours trying to get this to work, googling high and low and come across several other users with the same situation - none of which I found a resolution to.
I have done/tried:
Can anyone tell me how to fix this/what I'm missing? It would be greatly appreciated.
I have done/tried:
- Port forwarding in the router
- Ensuring UPnP is on
- Putting my desktops LAN IP in the DMZ
- Lowering the Firewall protection level in the router
- Opening the ports in Windows Firewall
- Checking they're open in command prompt
Can anyone tell me how to fix this/what I'm missing? It would be greatly appreciated.

I appreciate your response/input. I wanted 2/internet to LAN but I have managed to figure out what's going on. Turns out it's to do with the ISP (Origin broadband). From what I gather, they're running CGNAT (Carrier-grade Network Address Translation) and have blocked port forwarding from their side hence all my efforts have been pointless and fruitless. This can be 'fixed' by paying for a static IP for the nominal sum of £1.49. Hope this helps someone else in the future.1

Hello @JimmyF
Can you please confirm which direction you want port forwarding to happen?- LAN to Internet?
- Internet to LAN?
Kind regards,
