Node won't go online

Hello, can anybody help me get my storj node online?

I am using Virtualbox with Windows 7 and i configured port forwarding and it will not connect.

Port is open but shows closed sometimes because of router.

my IP is mega-storage.asuscomm.com port 7000

That’s the port for your Storj node or some other service?

I am running virtualbox with port 7000 forwarded to Storj.

Storj is giving me a message that says its not connecting.

You should modify the server.address: option in the "C:\Program Files\Storj\Storage Node\config.yaml" (please, use the Notepad++ for that). It should be server.address: :7000.
Change the contact.external-address: option, it should contain your external address with port contact.external-address: mega-storage.asuscomm.com:7000.
Save the config and restart the storagenode service.

Please, check your identity: https://documentation.storj.io/dependencies/identity#confirm-the-identity

I tried putting this and its still not working. Any other ideas?

I made sure my Identity was fine and i checked and it has 6 files.

Please, compare your WAN IP on the router with IP on https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/
And with IP from this command:

nslookup mega-storage.asuscomm.com 8.8.8.8

And add an inbound firewall rule for the TCP port 7000 on your Windows VM
