Port Forwarding Issue

Blobeh:
I've been able to host servers for a long time. I just started to play Blockland again, and wanted to host a server. When I followed the instructions, I was still unable to host a server. There were a few things I noticed however: One thing was that I remember it saying in the tutorial that the range should be from 28000 - 28030, and now it says 28000 - 28000. Another thing I noticed was that the last 3 digits of each of my DNS adresses had changed. The last thing I noticed was that it said to change the protocol under the "Local Area Connection" when I thought it was "Wireless internet connection." Despite these differences, I followed the tutorial precisely and wound up with a dead server. If anyone has any ideas on what might be wrong, or I have made myself unclear, please post it here.

*EDIT* (because I cant edit first post)

I forgot to mention: Under the "local area connection" properties, there is a tab marked "Advanced." In this is has a box where you can check off "Allow others to access the internet via this IP" or something along the lines of that. I was wondering if this could also be an issue.
Blobeh:
Are you serious, no one knows?
Jerkface:
It just seems funny, you say you find these differences... but no mention on how they turned out when you tried to fix them.  Did you change the noticeable changes?

Also: "Allow others to access the internet via this IP" is a bad thing to turn on. It has little to do with actual blockland.

Should have mentioned that, yes I changed it around to what I thought it should be, but still nothing.

Ok, that's nice to know. It just looked a little important.
