Can't connect to game server after port fowarding
So I manage to follow some guide and got a v83 server up and running pretty fast (30mins of dl and install and moving files) and everything works fine I get on and can play around. So next I go and port foward, open up 8484, change the ip in server property to my external ip and change the ip in the launcher to external ip. So Me and my friends get on the server just fine, log in create character but when we try to get in to the game it away kick us out to login screen saying can't connect to game server. I uninstall everything and reinstall everything, and once again it works when its just on local host but when I portfoward and change the ip on the server property and launcher it boots us back out after selecting a character saying can't connect to game server. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I feel like there is some where else I need to change the IP or something but can't find anything. Thanks for any help.
Edit: I'm using zenthosdev (if there better one to use I'm open to suggestions)

What ports did you forward?
Solaxia is more stable.

8484 which is the port that the server is listening on, however the channels themselves uses like 7575 and 7576 idk if i need to portfoward those but I feel that it shouldn't be effecting me the host from getting in the game too. Because after port fowarding even I get the same issue playing on the host computer. And do you have link to Solaxia download? Thanks.

You need to forward the channel ports. You don't forward any ports if your only playing on host computer.

So I need to do 3 port foward? the 8484 for the server and 7575, 7576 for the two channel ports? Also I'm trying to get my friends on as well, however the moment I port forward just 8484, they can get on and make character but get kick out to login when they try to go in character and it even happen to me the person on host computer.
Edit: Thanks opening the port for the channel worked =D
