Almost forgot a important detail I think. The internet is being provided through a nokia wifi gateway 3. From what I know its just to get the internet from the street to the router. Im not sure if it would have anything to do with the port forwarding not working. Also, When I used my old router to get the port forwarding to work, That router was plugged in via ethernet. The new router, is not plugged in through ethernet. It is going through wifi to my pc. Im also not sure if that would make a difference but thought i should mension it.
