Easiest way to do this (port forwarding), hit the start menu, and search for "CMD" (terminal for linux, I'm assuming you know this). In that, you type "ipconfig", and find these two lines:

IPv4 Address: . . . . . . . . . 192.168.2.7
Default Gateway: . . . . . . . . 192.168.2.1


The numbers will be different, but keep track of them. You will access your router using the "default gateway" address in your browser, and try searching on the internet for your router model's default password (or, take a chance at one you normally use). From there, find something that has words along the lines "Port forwarding", and you fill in the feilds with the following information:

port 25565
port 25565
TCP/UDP
IPv4 address (192.168.2.7, in our example)

That would essentially be all you have to do to port forward. Keep in mind if your router also has a firewall, this also needs to allow through port 25565, or be disabled in general.


After that, you need to check up on your firewall (which I can address afterwards if it isn't solved by this point).
