sorry i didn't see that postOriginally Posted by Gig.
I port forwarded with Dynamic IP, still says it's closed. and I have no fucking clue how to change to static. I tried this program, but it couldn't parse the IPv6 address?
I guess I could call, but I have no idea if you need some sort of ID thing which I don't have.
random challenges then.
why the hell does this have to be so fucking hard?(laugh if you wish)

ipconfig /all
Find the connection you use for internet.
Write down the IPv4 address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, and DNS Server(s).
Close the command prompt.
Open your Network Connections.
Right click the connection you use to connect to the internet (same as above) and click Properties.
In the new window, click Internet Protocal (TCP/IP) or IPv4 or however it's labeled, then click Properties.
There should be boxes labeled similarly to everything you copied down before. Hit the radio button for "Use the following address" on both boxes, and fill in all the numbers with the ones you wrote down. The only one you should change is the IPv4 address. I'd suggest using whatever the old address was -10. For example, if it was 192.168.1.2, use 192.168.1.247 (since it's 0-255).
Attached picture is what the last few boxes look like in XP:

I did that, all I got was a bunch of stuff saying media disconnected.

You probably picked a bad IP (as in one already in use by another device). Also, you may need to restart to get it working. Or you could have just not waited long enough, since being disconnected directly after changing those settings is normal. You should be able to reconnect after a few seconds, though. Just remember how to do it so you can set it back to automatically assign in case you screw something up.
Also also, have you checked your software firewalls? If you've got something on the computer itself blocking, it'll say the ports aren't forwarded. It might even be your antivirus. Try adding whatever game it is as an exception or disabling the firewall altogether.
Finally, if it still doesn't work, the only other things I could think of are a) the network you're on doesn't allow port forwarding (i.e. school network with several subnets) or b) you did it wrong. It could be something simple like doing only UDP when you need both TCP and UDP forwarding, or it could be something a bit more confusing like forwarding from the port to any rather than from any to the port.

I probably did it wrong
I'll try unpluging all this stuff overnight

Really, the only other thing I could say is that http://www.portforward.com is your friend. It has full walkthroughs on how to set a static IP and forward ports for just about every game and just about every router out there, complete with screenshots. It's a little ad-heavy nowadays, but it's still really good information.
