Port forwarding help

[BeGaDaButcher]

G'Day all,

I was wondering if I could please get some help/advise on why my ports appear closed still on my dedicated game server virtual machine running on proxmox.

At the location we are running NBN fixed wireless and so have a router provided by the ISP. The internet router is the DHCP and I have set port forwarding on it to my VM (via a leased IP based on mac address of the VM network interface) and I have disabled firewall on the node and VM in proxmox.

However when I run port checkers for the location's external IP it still says blocked and I am not sure what else to do.

I have blanked out some stuff from the screenshots but I hope contain enough information.

Router port forwarding:


IP Lease:


NIC setup on the VM:


VM's firewall options:


Node's firewall options:


VM's OS firewall settings:


Checking port from within the VM:



Honestly not sure what is wrong. Thinking of calling the ISP to see if they block the ports from their side but they are notorious for having low and horrible support.


Thanks in advance! Let me know if there is any other info that could help.


Regards,
JKN

Argh! - Never mind. I downloaded a port checker program on the VM instead and it is saying the ports are actually open....
