make sure you have the disable port testing to external ip option off
also on your server.ini check this entry

[Andromeda.Andromeda]
GameServerIP=0.0.0.0

change 0.0.0.0 to your external ip
and test

u sure u placed the right info for opening ports?? u open the forwarding ports??  netgear is weird

i only used 1716 through 1719 and shows ports open

u also do these steps for ur firewall if ur using 1, i had to allow traffic in order to play as well

Yea all the ports are for sure open what is needed in router settings and in windows firewall and all the traffic is allowed.. i have tried all the things what i can imagine but still not working so all the help is needed. It must be so freaking weird option in router or in assist/army some setting is fucked up, dunno.. :down:

no you dont have to change no ip , just change that line in your server.ini , 0.0.0.0 is the default value

find external ip here

All I did is open the ports and used the port forwarding function made one for aa2 and haven't had no problem since, much easier to solve this problem ur having on TS instead of forums
