DSL 1.7.12 Cannot read ports despite ports being forwarded

So, like many others I have forwarded ports. 7777, 7778, 27015 in both TCP [AND] UDP protocol in my modem/router optical network unit. The address for the ports is the local IP of the machine to the router. Windows defender firewall is disabled.

DSL WILL NOT For some reason WILL NOT Read those ports as open.

I have seen other people run the DSL with it reading the ports closed and still access their servers.

I tried to access mine from 127.0.0.1:7777 as I did a couple years ago, no dice.

For everyones S\A:

I am currently running on Windows 11 Atlas 0.50 Ports from the network device noted in the network config device in the DSL, which matches the network address of my PC in netstat, and from my routers connected devices.

I have done everything the same as I did two years ago when I last ran the DSL for a home server and it worked then, but now it is refusing to read the ports or let anyone connect.

Since you say “two years ago” on a “home server” I’m assuming you were running Win 10 then.
Silly question I know but have you reconfigured the ports for Win 11, ie 7777, 7778, 2015. Just need to know, to discount an easily overlooked setting.

Are you running any other games on your home server. As an example, ‘Satisfactory’ also uses 7777 and is not resettable. I have to reset the 7777 port on CE to 77** to have both severs running at once.

Foot note: are you you using a static IP address.
