Port Forward issues RT-AC3200

[ThoirDanion]

Hi I have a Asus RT-AC3200 router and I'm trying to setup port Forwarding on my router so I can start hosting a Minecraft server but for the life of me I cant get the router to forward the ports. So I figured I would ask some experts. I've forwarded ports in the past no problem with the RT-AC66U and 68U but I'm at a loss any help anyone could give would be a godsend. I can't seen to attach pics but if anyone wants them I have screenshotted my settings in my router and will share them.

Hi I looked over the FAQ and everything looks right on my end I have enclosed a screenshot if you can see anything that would be great.

Too wide and blurry to read.

sorry about that I took a picture with my camera so it's close up so you can see the settings now.

Does the machine at 192.168.2.247 have its own local firewall that needs to allow the incoming traffic?

I have windows firewall I have allowed the ports there as well and even tried disabling the firewall but my friends can't connect to my Minecraft server

I have tried the minecraft settings on the portforward no go unfortunately. Do you know of software that will open ports that doesn't cost money?

Opening ports is free. Knowing which ports to open is priceless.

There's no way I'd give portforward.com any money, let alone $40. Especially considering almost all of their "guides" are wrong.

the issue I'm running into is the ports I have opened on my router look right from all guides I have come across but they don't seem to be open from my picture of my settings in my router do they look right?

Do the actual Port forward rules have any hits?
