Ok well me and my friend wanted to play minecraft multiplayer but i set up a server and he cant connect so he tries to set up a server on his computer and i cant connect to it. we have been at it for a while now we tried doing the port thing and alot of other stuff but it still says:
failed to connect to server connection timed out: connection. but when i go onto other servers its perfectly fine no problems same with him and if i enter my ip i cant connect to my server but i can connect to my server if i type in localserver please help this is very annoying!!
Make a screenshot of the webinterface of your router where you portforwarded and upload it to some free image hosting, then link it here. Also provide your server's internal IP and server.properties file in [code] tags.
Please follow Rollese's advice and post a screenshot of your port forward settings. We may be able to help you if you do that for us.
Sigh. Hold my hand, now…
Access your router’s settings page with the port forwarding information. Print screen. Save the file and upload it to a free imaging service like imgur. Post the image here so we know you are port forwarding correctly.

yes....
me and my friend did it and followed exactly what it said
Check port 25565 there. If it's ON it's not a port issues. If it's off the forward your ports right.
i tried it and it said this:
Error: I could not see your service on 1**.**.***.*** on port (25565)
Reason: Connection timed out
Please follow Rollese's advice and post a screenshot of your port forward settings. We may be able to help you if you do that for us.
