How can you port forward a Minecraft server without a router?

Answer 1

Without a router you don't need to portforward. To get an IP adress without a router follow these steps:

1. Make a new folder on your desktop and name it want you want (ex. minecraft Server)

2. Download the "Multiplayer Server" software in this link: www.minecraft.net/download

3. Place the Download in the folder (if you don't see .exe at the end of the download called Minecraft Server rename it by putting .exe at the end).

4.Run the program if you see any "Error" messages ignore them it just couldn't find the files that have just popped up in the folder. Close the program by typing in "Stop" at the bottom of the program.

5. Go to the start menu and type in "cmd" select the option at the top of the menu. After it opens type ipconfig and look for the "IPv4 Adress" write it down or memorize it.

6. Go back to the folder you made and enter the "IPv4 Adress" (this is also the IP adress) in the section in the program called "Server" with a blue notepad next to it don't mix it up withthe other "Server" program.

7. Run the "Minecraft Server" program and wait until it's done starting the server again and open Minecraft, login, go to multiplayer, add the server add the name of the server IF the server is whitelisted( the option to

white-list is at the bottom of the "Server" program delete "false" then type in "true" this also works for the other options to activate them (ex. spawn monsters).Then go

to the whitelist program in the folder and type in the names of the people you only want to play) you do not have to put the name of the server if there is no whitelist, then enter the IP adress then test it.

8. You're done!!!
