Irish Red and White SetterOP
Setting up a server for the first time with port forwarding on windows with vanilla server download from mojang, server runs fine but I have someone else try to join under my ip and they get "Connection timed out: getsockopt".

- I used my ip using https://icanhazip.com/ ,I’ve used my ipv4 address with ipconfig to find it, with and without :25565.
- I’ve tried turning off my public firewall
- Portchecker says its open
- After running the CGNAT command i get this:
[INFO] No CGNAT detected. Only one or no internal IPs found.
[ERROR] Error checking port 25565. Ensure you have internet access.
[ERROR] You should not be behind CGNAT for IPv4, but your TCP port 25565 is not open.
- Using another system in my home, I tried my ip and nothing, then i did my ipv4 and it connected

Not sure what else to try or what it could be. Any ideas?

Did u try a tcp port checker
Usually you cannot join vía your public ipv4
Only local

i used portchecker.co and it said it was open
You just can't connect vía your public ip
Connect vía the private one
Irish Red and White SetterOP
Well thats the issue, I tried with with a friend yesterday doing both, and they got the same error both times, but ill try again with just the private one
@Havanese Connect vía the private one

Are you hosting the server on the same machine that you're playing on?
Irish Red and White SetterOP
Yes

Have you tried connecting to server address "localhost"?
Irish Red and White SetterOP
