As stated I followed the Guide here:https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Tutorials/Setting_up_a_server and now I'm able to connect with local host and when checking my port here: https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ it says it is open but i cannot connect using my ip address taken from googling "whats my ip". When trying to connect using my IP address it says the connection times out
Windows 7
Version of Java: 1.8.0_161
Thanks for the help in advance
A server hosted on the same machine is meant to be joined through localhost from that machine ONLY. Other players join your server through your public IP.
