portforwarding the FTJ problem

Post by Eladur »

Hi guys

Yes, I know, sorry, this is another FTJ thread...
So, at uni I got this FTJ problem. At my parents' house I don't have this problem. So I think I can rule out the "firewall"-cause since I'm using the same laptop on both locations.

I've tried portforwarding the ports (80, 2300-2310) but they are still closed. Can anyone check what I might've done wrong?

PS: I'm really not that much of a techguy
PSS: I enabled UPnP allready.

I tried port-forwarding too but it did not work, my provider said I would have to buy something like dynamic IP feature first, so I just used VPN.

Which VPN do you use, and is it subscription based or?

I used http://vpntool.com/, it's free and easy to install but it cuts your internet speed. Probably there are better VPNs but not all of them solve FTJ problem.

I'll try it if I eventually can't fix the problem, thanks!
