I have opened alot of servers before but now i have problems with opening my ports on my orbi router and i don't know what to do about it. When i use my portchecker it just tells me that connection timed out. I have UpnP disabled and i have set up a static ip adress (tried without it aswell). I have tried to disable my firewall and my antivirus program but to no help. Any sugestions is appriciated
"Can't" 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.
Why, exactly, are you trying to configure port forwarding?

What, exactly, is your "my portchecker", and what, exactly, did you do with it where?

How? For what?
Terminology: A "static" address is configured on the device itself. What you configure on a (DHCP server on a) router is a reserved dynamic address, not a static address. Are you talking about Address Reservations on the Orbi, or actual static addresses configured on the device itself, or what? What, exactly, did you do?

In my experience, people who talk about ports being "open" or "closed" often don't understand the problem.

Sorry everyone for bothering you. I was to vague in my post. Turns out it was me that was dumb:D. I have two routers now that we got fiber installed and that is why it did not work since i only had the ports on my orbi router opened and not my telia one. Sorry again ty for your help anyway!
