I'm trying to setup my port forwarding, and I need to know if I should choose an HTTP connection or an FTP connection for FGII. Does anyone know the answer to this?

The answer is neither. You want TCP/IP protocol on port 1802.

you will need to create a custom entry specifying the above.

Or, if your router/modem/firewall supports UPnP turn this on and Fantasy Grounds should do the port forwarding for you via UPnP.

I got it. Saithan walked me through it yesterday, so I'm up and running now. :)

Great news. :)

What was the issue preventing running the second FG instance on the same computer and connecting as localhost?
