It must have labored the primary time....Did you add the application as an exception to home windows Firewall? Whilst you forwarded the port, did you activate/permit it (some routers require doing so before the port is actually forwarded)? Does the game require any type of registration to provide you with server capabilities? If you happen to answered sure to the primary and 2nd question, then it undoubtedly will have to have worked. In case you answered yes to the 3rd query, be certain to do so, or double-determine to ensure you probably did. For those who answered no to all or any...Then i am at a loss.

Basically you are dealing with two IP addresses. One is a public route-able IP and the other is a private IP. With port-forwarding you are saying that a request that comes in on the public IP on a specific port, will then be sent to a specific private IP on the same port. So if a request comes in on port 1020 then that data will be sent to the private IP at port 1020.

Most windows computers have a firewall as well, so windows can block those requests. Some anti-virus programs can also block incoming requests. Sometimes an application will be listed as an accepted application in the windows firewall and so windows will allow communication.

A good way to test this is to put your computer into a DMZ zone. Because port forwarding is designed to pass information through a firewall, putting a computer in a DMZ zone will put the computer outside the router's firewall. This means that even if for some reason the port forwarding isn't working, it wont matter because your computer will be outside the firewall. Although it's not wise to leave it in the DMZ zone its a good way to test to see if the issue is with your application or the computer itself.
