Out of curiosity you are talking about ipv4 addresses, right?

This is my Forum Signature, I am currently attempting to transform it into a small guide for fixing easier issues using spoiler blocks to keep things tidy.

 

As the most common issue I feel I should put this outside the main bulk:

The only official source for Forge is https://files.minecraftforge.net, and the only site I trust for getting mods is CurseForge.

If you use any site other than these, please take a look at the StopModReposts project and install their browser extension, I would also advise running a virus scan.

 

For players asking for assistance with Forge please expand the spoiler below and read the appropriate section(s) in its/their entirety.

Ok I think that I finally found the problem and I am just a complete dumbass for not knowing this. It turns out that the "modem" that AT&T gave us when we moved in actually ALSO functions as a router, so I actually have 2 routers in my network. I have no idea how to go about port forwarding with 2 routers and would appreciate any help if possible. Here is my network map(with models for routers):

 

AT&T BGW210 -(wired)>ASUS RT-AC5300 -(wired)>PC 

 

As shown on the map, everything is connected via ethernet.

There's a couple of options here. The first is, if you're willing, to put the AT&T BGW210 into modem only mode as two routers is hardly ideal. 

 

You can find a thread about it here: https://forums.att.com/t5/AT-T-Internet-Features/Help-Configuring-BGW210-In-Bridge-Mode-IP-Passthrough-for-EA9500/td-p/5265310

 

The other option is to do port forwarding again - but to the routers IP address from the modem. You should be able to find what IP the router has been assigned from either the modem or routers control panel. In the routers control panel it should be listed as a WAN or Internet address, despite being connected to the modem acting as a router.

I'm almost sure thats the router fault. From what i see you have an asus router and i have the same router as you.

I tried to setup a forge server for my friends and i have the same problem.
