Orbi Portforwarding not Working
I reccently got a new orbi router and have been having issues with portforwarding. I just tried making a minecraft server and everything is fine but something with the port forwarding is wrong. I used 25565 and did UDP and TCP and my local ip. However my friends cant connect and when I go to a port tester it says that 25565 is closed on my ip.
Has any one else had this issue and does anyone know how to fix it?

Hello Fruitpigy
Are you using a mode/router combo unit as your modem?
