    What did you try?
    And of course the laundry list of questions:
    1. Do you have a static ipv4
    2. Did you portforward to your ipv4
    3. Do you have a firewall that is blocking the 25565 port

    Okay. @matt2434 , you did something wrong. Surprise! Everyone messes up on their first try at port forwarding! Go to www.portforward.com and try their instructions.

    @matt2434, Surprise! You messed up! But everyone does on their first port forward try. Reset your router and try again. I suggest, listen to DuoDex and go to www.portforward.com, if you can't find your router there, you can pm me and I can help. Also, if port forwarding for your router doesn't work, you can use Hamachi or an alternative.

    NOTE: Make sure that when you port forward, there is nothing on the ip: line in the server.yml.

    matt9434 Look up your router's model default username and password.

    The default username AND password is simply the word "admin". (If it doesn't work, check your router's default username and password.)
    Type it in just as it appears. Lowercase. No spaces.
    Hope I helped!

    just admin (no quotes)
    and the password is sometimes admin as well, or if not, check the bottom of the router - the sticker might say
