Internet not working after port forwarding

Post by NoVaGaming »

So im a minecraft server developer and am trying to make a minecraft server running of of a computer VM. Im using Turnkey Debian Linux and when i port forward my machine to DMZ on my AT&T Router it changes my ip to what people would connect with. I have bridged network on and have the right adapter selected. I also have DMZPlus selected on the router. Thanks!

If the guest can access the Internet using Bridged mode than VirtualBox has done its thing. Forwarding from the router is outside the scope here and you should also keep in mind that providers do filter certain posts to keep you from doing what you appear to be. You would need to contact them to see if they are in fact blocking certain ports.
