This looks an awful lot like a private address.
If you are not on the same network make sure to use the public address. Also if you also can’t connect to your local IP make sure the firewall is configured correctly.
When opening the connection to the world make sure you configured port forwarding at the router.

What is see when I do ipcofig is this

IPv4 address: 192.168.X.XX
Subnet Mask: 255.255.2XX.X
Default Gateway: 192.16X.X.X

Yes that is your local IP address only accessible from within your local network.
To get your public IP go to websites like https://www.whatismyip.com/

I put that in my Port forward correct or the Server Nickname or Address?

Put the public IP Adress in Server Nickname or Adress.

Port Forwarding looks to be correct like 9987 -> 192.168.x.xxx

Swat842 · October 14, 2020, 5:48pm

I just did an this is what I got

Connecting…
Trying to connect

Connection Error
server connection could not be initialized

Did you configure the Windows firewall to allow TeamSpeak server?

Swat842 · October 14, 2020, 5:52pm

Not yet I did Port Froward on my Router/Modem…

Firewall
Inbound & Outbound Correct?

boehseronkel · October 14, 2020, 5:52pm

Try with the Port:

Server Adress: PublicIP:9987

Port Forwarding should be something like this:

External UDP 9987 to Internal (IP of your PC e.g. 192.168.xxx.xxx) and Port 9987

In addition you have to allow TS Server communication in you Firewall.

Gamer92000 · October 14, 2020, 5:53pm

Yes. If you use the new Windows 10 firewall app allow thingy you can just say “allow”.

Swat842 · October 14, 2020, 5:55pm

Ok I did just try 23.28.2X.XXX:9987 same message gonna trying the Firewall

Firewall In & Outbound

UDP: 9987 for TeamSpeak 3 Voice
TCP: 30033 for TeamSpeak 3 Filetransfer
TCP: 10011 for TeamSpeak 3 ServerQuery

Correct?

I’m a friend of Swat842 I’m trying to get connected to his server and it keeps registering as failed when I made of the exact copy of the required codes he provided

boehseronkel · October 14, 2020, 8:26pm

The Ports you have listed are correct. Maybe check your port forwarding again, or disable Windows Firewall for 1 Minute to check where the Error comes from.

You can check if your port is open with the following tool:

Swat842 · October 14, 2020, 8:44pm

It say’s all 3 are Closed

boehseronkel · October 14, 2020, 9:24pm

Have you disabled the Windows Firewall for testing?

Then there might be an error within your Port Forwarding configuration…

Try also open a Port for 9987 on TCP and what is the configuration of the Motorola Modem Firewall?

Local IP Adress should be something like that: 192.168.xxx.xxx
and External 23.28.xxx.xxx

Swat842 · October 14, 2020, 9:32pm

I have tried Disabled Windows Firewall

Trying to connect

Connection Error
server connection could not be initialized

I have also tried Disable Router/Modem Firewall

And the Port Forwarding Configuration is correct?

With the correct External and Internal IP Adress?
Or has your IP Adress changed?

The Server is up and running?
Cann you connect to your Server locally by using your IP adress e.g. 192.168.xxx.xxx?

Swat842 · October 14, 2020, 11:10pm

Port Forwarding Configuration is Correct? YES

With the correct External and Internal IP Address? YES

The Server is up and running? YES

Can you connect to your Server locally by using your IP address e.g. 192.168.xxx.xxx? YES

Can you connect to your Server with out Using your Computer / Laptop? NO

Dose your IPv4 Address 192.168.X.XX / 23.28.2X.XXX connect to your Friend’s system or Cell phone? NO
