Yeah, with 4 routers, I can see where you would run into issues lmao! You still wouldn't want to set those settings I mentioned in my last post though, leave those commented out as I mentioned.
What you do need to do is ensure that your ports are forwarded through all of the way to your server. Also, make sure you are using Port RANGE Forwarding, not just Port Forwarding as they are not the same thing and normal Port Forwarding will not work.
Basically, you need to figure out the path of the traffic from your internet to the server. If you have 4 routers in between there, then each router needs to have port range forwarding of the listed ports sent to the IP of the next router and so on until the last router that connects directly to your server has the ports set to go right to the server.
I am not sure what you would need 4 routers for, but if you are trying to run a server from a network that isn't 100% your own personal network all of the way to the modem (like a college campus/dorms, or a companies network), then it is very possible that they have a proxy set on their network. If so, then most proxies block most of the needed ports for EQEmu to work and you would either need to contact the network admins to get them to open the ports, or you would just be out of luck.
