All ports are blocked by default for incoming traffic. Not sure what server you are trying to run, but that will more than likely be the reason for it.

i already opened the required port for the server gave my ip away i can see them connecting but there are no packet being transfered so they are always disconnected

The port will be blocked for what is called "unsolicited traffic", even if you opened it up. It will only be open for traffic that is the result of response(s) to traffic that originated from your IP.

There might be some ports that are not standard ports that are open, you can try that. But the default ports are blocked for sure.

Don't know how you have it set up, but what port are you using?

You will have to use ADMZ to get a public IP, or use a separate PPPOE connection. But there's many reasons why a server of some kind might not get the proper IP assigned.
