Can someone please assist (created this in another section but think better suited here)

My port forwarding worked flawlessly until about 2 week ago, didn't change anything other than installing Team Viewer (which I think created the problem - have subsequently uninstalled it)

Everything is set up correctly (even did a factory reset on my router)

Have no IP
Ports 8080, 8081, 5050 are forwarded to correct DDNS AND correct IP

But when I try and access it internal and external I get the error access rejected... I have even switched off my firewall but get same error.

Not sure what else to do here.
 
If you cannot access from inside the network, its not the port forwarding.
Run a netstat -a from the command prompt on the target machine and see if its got the relevant ports listening. If it is listening. There is a issue somewhere on the thing you trying to access.
 
Perhaps your IP has changed, unless you set it to static.

But even so, do an ipconfig to confirm that your IP is still what it was when you set up everything.

Ok will try this when I get home thank you
