What do IP addresses have to do with being a 'heavy minecraft player'
This all has to do with your computer.

I mean I dont know what im doing to host a working minecraft server

Depends on the router.
Some are just stuffty or overcomplex or do their own thing.
I have a Thomson Speedtouch until recently and even if I followed port-forwarding for it completely correctly, it would revert itself back to normal constantly and ignore any ports that were forwarded.

I've got a new router from Sky now though, but I haven't looked into port-forwarding on it yet.
Hopefully it can and I'll be able to host servers without Hamachi and my Blockland server will definitely run.
Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. Although it hasn't for some time now.

Does any1 have a solution? Do I need to post any specs or anything because I really want to host it

Multiple solutions have been posted. You are just too incompetent to understand them.

I have a local server running fine... I have port forwarded, my bro's computer can only connect to the LAN but I still can't get my friends to be able to join (yes I know they cant join my LAN) I am so lost this is disgusting is there any other way to host without hamachi? I really am trying to figure this out... I have youtubed this and same results so really its not my incompetence. I'm just looking for answers

maybe forward your ports?

If neither your brother nor your friends can connect are you sure that you have one, set up the Hamachi correctly and started a network (try making one without a password) and that they actually know how to use Hamachi and how to connect?

It does require it to work both ways.
Are they actually connected to your Hamachi at all?

The only other thing I know of other than Hamachi is to simply host a server via port-forwarding.
Perhaps you can get your friend to host the server instead?

Okay I re did everything... in hamachi I can click my brothers computer on my network and it says I get a reply from him
but when I get on his computer and I double click my computer on my network... the request times out? is this my problem? how to fix?

Okay I have done extensive research... my ports are all closed... I port forwarded again and again and yet nothing is happening

When porting forward:

Name: Minecraft Server
Port In: 25565
Port Out: 25565
Set it to Both
Enable it

What else was there...

Ive done... that... ive read up and it seems that At&t is a b!tch about port forwarding... and it doesnt really work... if you want an open port you have to pay them 150$ for 'tech support'.
so im guessing that I have done everything right but At&t is my problem... but im going to do a little more research... anyone here with U verse that hosts minecraft servers?

you're such a loving liar.

i've been using u-verse for the loving longest ass time.

does your router look like this:
