Connection Test

[Plissken]

Hi, I was wondering if anybody could login to the server/game I have started at 71.188.248.167
This will be up all day so please help me test whether others can connect.

If you are able to login, just leave a message and your location from where you are locating (ex. China, USA).

If you can't login, please leave a message here saying you couldn't.

Thank you

IP addresses beginning with 192.168 are private network addresses, only connectable to within your own LAN. Go to https://whatismyip.com/ and copy-paste that here, it gives an external IP address to which we can try connecting.

[Plissken]

Ahh, thanks. My ip is: 71.188.248.167

Could not connect to host.

You might want to check that your router has port forwarding enabled and that you've allowed FG to receive connections in your software firewall's policies.

Same here... take a look at your port forwarding as per joeru's last reply.

[Plissken]

Hi, sorry. Can you try again? I setup port forwarding (hopefully correctly). I have a question about forwarding. When I specify a range of ports, can those be any number? For example, between 1500-1505?

Just gave it a whirl and no dice for me.

Port is normally 1802 I believe.

No luck for me either. 1802 is the correct port. I had the same problem Plisskin when I first tried to host. Forward the correct port and all will be well.
