Eero port-forwarding for Minecraft not working

Hi, I am trying to make a Minecraft server and it seems like my port-forward is not working I put TCP&UDP and 25565 under my IPv4 address. I added rules and everything to my firewall on my computer so it seems the last problem is the port-forward. If anyone has an idea of what is wrong please help! Thanks!

    Hi wizard

    When you add a port forward make sure to reboot the eero just to make sure that the port forward goes into effect.

    Also, I found a page that shows what port forwards Minecraft needs for whatever system you are using it on, make sure the correct port forwards are setup.

    https://portforward.com/minecraft/

     

    Lastly, if the upstream device is running a router/firewall you likely need to add the same ports on that and point it to the eero.

    Hi, it seems this did not fix my problem I restarted and I do not have a another device upstream. I am not sure what to do.

      wizard I would call into support to make sure everything is setup correctly on the eero's side

    I’ve got a very sad 9 year old, please help. We’ve had a Minecraft server for years and we just purchased a EERO and now we can’t get the server running. We know how to port forward and it’s not working. Any help would be greatly appreciate. Please. Please please

      Make sure to reboot the eero to ensure the port forward settings have gone into affect. If it doesn't please send us an email to support@eero.com and use the subject line "Community Followup - Minecraft port forwarding" so we can check into things and see if we see any issues.

      I figured it out!!

      The Minecraft server was already established when we switched to Eero. We couldn't figure it out and then...... We were trying to log into the IP from before we switched to eero. Did a new "Whatsmyip", entered that in the server login.....fixed. Thank you
