Hello,
I have recently updated my RT-AC5300 Router to Asuswrt-Merlin version 384.15.
I am using PIA as a VPN; my external IP starts with 199.116.
The computer I am trying to add to the DMZ is wired.
These settings that I am trying to get working did work before I flashed Merlin onto the system.
I have factory reset the router and manually applied the settings again.
I did attempt to search the forums but unfortunately DMZ is too short of a search term and anything I found searching port forwarding was not useful.
I have been trying to get the DMZ or port forwarding function to work since I made that change and I am not sure what is wrong.
I am trying to forward 30924 to my computer. but no matter what I do, when I check the port on Can You See Me. it comes up as closed. I currently have the IP of my computer set int he DHCP server tab. I have that IP on the DMZ and I am forwarding that port to the IP on the Virtual Server/Port Forwarding tab. I checked the port with each step, and it did not work.
I would far prefer to put my computer on the DMZ so I don't have to configure anything to host Minecraft servers or multiplayer games as I do that a lot.
Any help would be deeply appreciated.
This is the post that resolved the issue. It turns out it was a setting in the program and not the router.

The problem is that your program is only listening on the PC's loopback adapter (127.0.0.1) and not its LAN adapter (192.168.1.69). So this is a configuration issue with the program.Code:Proto Local Address Foreign Address State TCP 127.0.0.1:30924 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING UDP 127.0.0.1:30924 *:*
