I'm trying to get port forwarding set up on my ZTE H3601P router, but nothing seems to work. I've set up the port forwarding rule, turned off my computer's firewall, and made sure my server is running. Even used a port checker, but I'm still having issues. What else can I try?

So, you're trying to run a server, right? That can be tricky sometimes! Make sure you've got the right ports open for your specific application, and double-check that you're entering everything correctly in the router settings.
First, make sure that your server has a static IP address assigned to it rather than a dynamic one. Also, check if your ZTE H3601P router is behind CGNAT (Carrier-Grade Network Address Translation), which could prevent incoming connections. A quick way to verify this is to compare your public IP from whatismyip.com with the WAN IP in your router settings. If they don’t match, that could be your issue, and you might need to ask your ISP for a public IP.
I had the same issue last week! Just double-check your port settings and ensure that your server is actually listening on that port. It's probably something simple!
