T3200M Minecraft port forwarding
Hey, I have a Telus T3200M, trying to run a MC server on port 25565, also tried 64829. I've been at this for over 20 hours, no joke, after work every day since Monday. I cannot for the life of ...

Ages ago I grabbed the list of ports for minecraft from portforward.com, whether those extra UDP ports are required today or not, I haven't checked.
With your WAN address being 100.82 it means your connection is being natted. In this case, known as CGNAT or NAT444 meaning you aren't able to port forward. It's like having a router plugged into your router, but in this case telus has put your router(modem) behind their router.
You have a few options to deal with this;
1) Do nothing and just live with not being able to port forward or host anything.
2) Get a VPS somewhere and use wireguard to tunnel (thereby forward ports) to a computer on your network.
3) Try this: https://forum.telus.com/t5/Internet-Home-Phone/WAN-IP-is-not-a-true-public-IP/m-p/112967#M27464
If you go for option 3 good luck and be patient with your agent, they'll likely have no idea what you're talking about.

I'm able to successfully port forward minecraft with the following entries in the port forwarding section of the T3200M;
25565/25565 TCP minecraft.computer.ip 25565/25565
25565/25565 UDP minecraft.computer.ip 25565/25565
19132/19133 UDP minecraft.computer.ip 19132/19133
Obviously minecraft.computer.ip will correspond to the ip address of the system you're running the mc server on.
If you already have this all set up I'd check to see if your "Modem IP Address" (T3200M's home page, left side) doesn't start with 100.64 through 100.127

Why are you forwarding 19132 to 19133?
what service is running on it?
My modem's WAN does start with 100.82
I'm reading this is some sort of fake WAN? I don't quite understand what it means...- tbor6 years agoOrganizer
