Hey everyone. I do not have a wifi card in my PC. Instead, I tether my Galaxy S7 to my PC in order to connect to the internet. Normally I have no problems at all.

However, I am currently trying to host a server on the game ARMA 3, and can't seem to open up the ports. I have never had issues port forwarding before, and this is the first time I have attempted it on Comcast's Xfinity (had used Cox prior).

I've followed every detail of this tutorial.

I would appreciate any help on the matter.

I am afraid you're out of luck. In your case, you need port-forward at two places: your Comcast router, and your phone. While routers generally allow for that, I don't thing the app you use for tethering on your phone will let you port-forward, too.
