http://portforward.com/help/portcheck.htm - a much more precise tool; it also tells you your internal IP just so you know for sure what IP you need to forward the ports to.

the ports should be UDP right?

I used the program and it said, your port is not open or not reachable.

Im not directly connected tto the router, i have wireless connection with my USB port
