Wireshark of client and server
left:SYN of client, right:ACK of server

SO far, I tried :

1. Disable the firewall so that iptables & firewalld say that it is inactive
2. Tried statically linkining an ip to the port and using ip route
3. Setting all rp_filter to 0 & the rx/tx-checksum to off

None of these work so im assuming there is a problem with my packet but from the looks of wireshark, it seems fine too. If anyone has any suggestions, do let me know.
