You do not need to forward ports in other for other computers in the LAN to connect to each other, forwarding ports is only for the internet. Additionally that wouldn't work as he explained his nephews are on the same network, you cannot connect to services on your own network directly through the internet, they need to be accessed locally.

You don't need to set the lanmode to 1 to connect from the Local Area Network. All you should need to do is run the server, and any other devices connected to the same LAN should be able to connect to the server through the LAN IP of the computer running the server software.

For example my main house PC is 192.168.1.21, if I ran an SA-MP server on it, and wanted to connect to it from another computer located on the same network, I would just connect to 192.168.1.21. To get the IP of the PC you are hosting the server on, open a command prompt and type ipconfig, and look for the IPv4 address of the active network adapter. I'm assuming that you may be trying to connect to the router, as the IP of the router is generally 192.168.1.1 or .254. So make sure you're connecting to the LAN IP of the computing with the SA-MP server running on it.

This sounds like a problem with your network configuration, can you ping the other computers in your Local Area Network? Try pinging the computer running the server from another computer in the network that you are trying to connect to, if you cannot ping, you have an error in your network setup.

Also if you want to remove it from the internet list on SA-MP, you need to set announce to 0 in the server.cfg.
