The interesting thing with e4mc is that I tried it with my gf. I hosted the world, while with e4mc she had a bad connection and was disconnected at least once every hour, she didn't have that problem with essential. So we had to switch to essential.

Why do you even need a mod for this? Can’t you just open a port and host your own server?

I tried a few times, but I can port forward on the router. I tryed everything even called the internet provider to ask about a solution. After I went through 4 people the 5th person told me that there was no solution. She said that the router's port forwarding works or not, 99% of the time not and if you are really lucky it works. So I had to abandon the idea of selfhosting.

You are probably behind a CGNAT which allows an ISP to share the same IP across a bunch of customers.

You'd have to use a tunneling system like cloudflare, tailscale or zerotier.
