So about a day ago, me and a friend decided we wanted to own a fiveM server, so I started creating an FXSERVER (to save money), followed multiple tutorials, and 'successfully (dont have any proof of working, but no proof of dysfunction) port forwarded my internal IP. I tried to host my external ip (typing “whats my IP” in google) but it was a different format as I am on a 10.x.x.x based router. I am able to add resources as well as join my FX server, but those who are on a different network connection are not able to, I join using 127.0.0.1:30120 and ive both tried adding to the https://keymaster.fivem.net both my external and internal ip along with getting my friend to try join using my internal IP 10...:30120 and my my external ip 121...*:30120 but they are always greeted with the server not being found, and yes they are searching for the server using the ‘Direct Connect’ tab on the fiveM server searcher (main page) if anybody could help us out on how we could fix this issue and allow not only my friend to be able to join my FXSERVER 
I forgot to mention, my router is a: Telstra gateway frontier running on the latest
It sounds like you aren’t port forwarding properly or your host firewall is blocking the connection.
Some explanation of IP addresses:
127.0.0.1 is your local computer. Anything sent to that IP talks to yourself.
10.* .* .* and 192.168.* .* are common private ranges. These are the IP addresses assigned by your router using DHCP, and are accessible to talk internally among your devices.
Your external IP is the one assigned by your ISP (typically also using DHCP from their own, enterprise grade routers and networking equipment) that the “world” sees and uses.
problem has since been resolved sorry for not removing the topic
