Port Forwarding issues are outrageous!

[Sankti]

Seriously, you guys need to do something about those port forwarding issues. It is NOT normal for the end user to be forced to access the command line, meddle with router options etc. for hours just to enjoy a product you're potentially charging HUNDRETS OF DOLLARS for!

I've been using Fantasy Grounds for months now and running my games as a DM very successfully from my old flat. But as soon as I want to play from a different location, I always spend hours and hours trying to set port forwarding. Worst of all, it's always to no avail! I've tried everything I could find on the forum and in the web. Connection is private, port forwarding is set up both through the router and firewall, etc. Long could I list the worthless "solutions" I've tried.

Recently I moved into a new apartment and it seems my days with FG are over. Yesterday another planned game night was unsuccessful and all my effort put to getting the people together is wasted. I've been trying to play my scenario for months now - you can imagine the frustration. My players awkwardly waiting for this program to work - outrageous!

So sorry to hear about all the issues and welcome to the forums! If you travel and are moving locations a fair amount, if you haven't already, check out this thread on alternatives to port forwarding:

Many folks have had great success with Hamachi and I know many people I've helped use Zerotier. Both are free options. If you want to text chat in real time and see if I can assist, feel free to join my discord. I have a text channel with links to my zerotier setup video.

Good luck and hope you get things sorted.
