Hello,

I’ve done a port forwarding configuration and made my ip static. But still, canyouseeme or other port checkers are not working and giving me a “Timeout”. My application itself which tries to connect to the ip+port gives me “Connection Refused”. I’ve my firewalls down for testing purposes and pinging the ip works fine.

Can you reach your service from another machine on your internal LAN? Are you confident that your ISP isn’t blocking via rule or NAT? What port number(s) are you trying to use?

I am not able to reach out to the service and I am sure it’s not blocked by ISP. I am trying to use port 8422
