ACTUAL FIX —— READ THIS

 

I spoke with so many representatives trying to fix this issue. Finally, I just asked a rep if they could open my ports on their end and explained I needed an Open NAT type….. after 10 minutes or so, they asked me to reset my gateway and check my NAT type and wouldn't ya know, OPEN!!

 

I had to come back here and hopefully help someone else out! Don't let anyone tell you it can't be done because they did it for me lol. 

Called them up, said you need a business account to do it, tried with 2 different representatives.
