Sooo.. I only have certain ports opened by my ISP.. and as I've seen in previous posts, you have to Open the BYOND pager > File > Preferences > Advanced > Set "pager port".
But I'm not seeing the option anywhere in there on the current version.
Could someone give me a hand, please?

The 5.0 pager establishes a temporary persistent connection via the initial outbound handshake (which does not require an open port). So you don't have to worry about keeping inbound pager ports open (even in the old system, this was of minor consequence as it just allowed for faster pager push communication). Keep in mind that BYOND has been around since most people were on dialup and didn't have firewalls protecting ports.
