In Q 2 you wrote that FG and your Router both display 172.25.something as your WAN address. This is most unlikely as the 172.25 address is not usable on the Internet.
Can you post screenshots?

Im so sorry I read 173 as 172... probably because there is a 172 in the tracert.

Is that what you see on the 192.168.2.1 router?

Yes.

Ok - it all looks like it is working. What is the issue you are seeing?

Actually, I think it is working now. Before I was only able to connect via a VPN like ZeroTier. Now my players can connect without the VPN. I don't know why it's working now... but thanks for your help!

Welcome ViniciusKpt

As per the other Brazilian users - your network doesnt spport Port Forwarding.
Contact the ISP and tell them you have a new home security system and it needs IPv4 port forwarding for the monitoring.
Otherwise have a look at the Port Forward Alternatives thread

Hello,

My isp is Mediacom and I have called them 4 times now and I guess they are upset and blew me off saying that I have to contact you guys(fantasy Grounds) and get the UDP and UDB address. I see in another post on this thread that you guys helped a Mediacom user without this coming up. I have deleted all Firewall entries on my computer and re-added them. Also allowed port 1802 access. I have 3 FG serial numbers so I am able to connect to the pc I am using as the GM from any other PC on my internal network but when I run the test on the load campaign page I get Failure. Any help?? BTW the reason I have 3 is 1 for gm, one for my son to use on his PC, and 1 for a friend who won't pay for it. lol

7. Port Forwarding set for TCP and UDP for port 1802 set to 192.168.0.21(i know it says broadband not available it always says that.. I don't know why.. but i can connect to other FG games I play on and to the internet.)
8. No

If 50.83.175.106 is what is shown by FG and by teh Router then you should be able to get this working.
If the local players can connect then most of the puzzle is solved.

At the bottom of the screenshot it says
