Have you forced updated? Maybe see if you can connect to Minecraft.net or it could be that you're being hacked...but thats unlikely.

Can't force update cause it says fatal error and then the same error. I can get on minecraft.net but can't play in browser

Ehhh... Can you connect to any other servers?
If you can then there's a problem with the IP you put in... And if not then there's a problem with your connection, reset it by turning on and off your modem.

There's nothing wrong with his router there is something wrong with the port connection >.< go to your MCmyadmin control panel and try to restart your server, also reinstall MC after deleting all components...

I've done all that and its still not working. Its not a server problem. Java just isn't allowing me to connect to anything. Minecraft won't even show the news because of the error

i know what this could be... try to disable your wifi protection, my wifi protectiong thingy doesn't allow my mc to download any components like updates or anything, or connecting to other routers and stuff, i now disabled it, and i can play mc like before
