Hello,

First : I have configure my port forwarding and it works very well for one computer.

But now I have 2 servers at home - so I need to forward to 2 computers... so I decide to use Port Trigger instead.

I know the incoming port (it is 1802) but I need the trigger port ??? I have tried 1802 but it does not seems to work.

I have check in my windows firewall but I do not have any entry for fantasy grounds in the Outbound Rules. So my question is what port Fantasy grounds use when it connect to their server ?

Or if someone can suggest me a tool to detect the port Fantasy Grounds uses.

Thanks a lot.

Lou

EDIT : I have tried with port 80 as trigger port and it works but is it the right port to use. That means that every times someone on my network browse the web the port 1802 will open... Is it the right port (80) to use ?

Welcome to FG Fealdor.

FG uses port 1802. You can’t run two instances of FG from the same location on the same license, and you can only have one port forward rule at any one time. If you have two computers you’ll need to change your rule to point to the active computer.

AFAIK port triggering won’t work.

trial using UPnP.
Otherwise just manually switch.
Ive not seen triggers work.

OK thank you for the information. I will use forwarding with switching manually.
