Port Forwarding - Untitled - 02-25-2012

Yep, that problem. I've never been able to successfully open a port except maybe once or twice. I follow all the guides for my router (TrendNET TEW 452BRP) it's a pretty bad router, but it works. I don't know what I'm doing wrong or if I'm doing something wrong. Screenies below.

Virtual Server inside access:

Can something be blocking me?

What exactly is the problem?
Do you have a domain name pointing to your external ip?
How are you testing this to see if its working?

To me it looks like you're not defining the protocol, it should be "UDP & TCP". But that's all I can see from the pics.

Yes, that is what the asterisk represents. I have also try setting separate ports. (As in opening 600 TCP, and a separate 600 UDP).
The star is UDP/TCP.

What I can see is, instead of forwarding the port to your static IP you're just leaving it empty? Like from the "Access" pic, the "Custom" port forward is the only one I can tell is working?

Have you tried to disable your firewall? That could be the problem.
