added port to McAfee firewall, same for window 7 firewall.
Connect to Localhost worked fine.
Issue is when my friend unable to join, not even me too. it will keep scanning my external Ip until connecting time out.
I even have friend come over and try connect via Local ip through internet with same router, same problem. Lan is fine.
I even disable firewall (McAfee and window 7) and issue persists.
i did everything what tutorial tell me to. from official tutorial and youtube tutorial and looked through other player's similar issue thread and tired it.
i have hosted server before and have experience with it with same computer, but it seem not working now for some reason.
I think it cause some kind bug that caused by something inside my computer.
edit: i want add one more thing i just remember. when set up lan, i enable cheat mode. my friend keep crashing when open inventory, but it work fine when cheat mode is disabled. I not know if this related to connect issue.

Try using that to make sure the port you want to forwards to is actually open.
Also is the server vanilla?
ok, i add that ip and port to Firewall or router's Port forward? how i can check if port is open? please explain more.
Server is 1.8.8.Jar from Minecraft.net/download.

website said it closed. I turn off McAfee firewall. Port still closed.
it seem something keep port closed, i not know what cause.
Edited:
Port is now open, turn out it was Window Firewall's fault. my friend now able to connect.
