Port forwarding for a Minecraft java server RAX 50
So i have been trying to port forward for years now but it has never worked i got a new router and decided i should try again but still doesn't work
based on the youtube videos i have watched thats all i would need but when i have the server running and i go to https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ it says Port 25565 is closed on (my ip)
i dont think it would cause issues but ARMOR is enables
Also it says the port is closed on my ip Even when i turn the windows defender fire wall off
Any help is appreciated

- Internet port scanners require that a service is listening on the specific port. If nothing is listening on that port, they'll report it as closed.
would me running the mc server at the time of the check not count as that? another thing is my friends cant join even with my firewall off
