"servers"? Which kind of "does not works properly" is this?
"does not" is not a useful problem description. It does not say what
you did. It does not say what happened when you did it. As usual,
showing actual actions (commands) with their actual results (error
messages, LED indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague
descriptions or interpretations.

Probably, but I can't see what you did.
Presumably, you have some kind of system at "192.168.0.24", which
might be running some servers, which might be listening at ports like
80, 7777, and 27015. Those port-forwarding rules look ok, if that
system really is at that LAN IP address. How, exactly, are you trying
to communicate with those servers? From where?

There are some questions and tests there which might be helpful.
Hello,

I am curious what parts I need to post here to get help from you?
I followed the way to port-forward the what you suggested page also but that's basically what I did.
I am not sure what additionally I have to deal with.
Thank you for your help.
check your firewall settings too

"parts"? You could try answering the questions. Look for "?".

Still true. Look for "?".
I am sorry about my lack of English which its not my first language. I was meaning by that.... what do you need to see on my setting so you can check what did I wrong or did not yet? I can reply with screenshot them.
Also, I checked the firewall too.
Thank you.

Your English is good.
> [...] what do you need to see on my setting [...]
The settings in your pictures look good.
What I'd like to see now are answers to the questions here and in:

For example, I don't need to see your (whole) public IP address, but:
> Does the IP address of the WAN/Internet interface of your router

Also:> Can you access the server from a system on your LAN using the
