Hi Janex23 thanks for the reply ive opened the ports listed 44405,55901,55919,55906,1433 still no change i know its something simple im missing ive also installed the microsoft loopback and set it as my global ip and my lan ip as gateway

[JaneX]

did u used the client that is recommended to use in that version? did you assigned the ports to forward on the servers lan ip? :D how about the connect server try checking it too :D

p.s dont open 1433 xD

some connect servers ports are set as 44406 (not sure with ur stuf xD)

[axxuss]

Geettings again Janex23 and many thank you's for replying

yes original client it opens to opening but displays no servers no matter what ip i edit it with ive tried other 1.07v+ versions they disconnect before any servers are displayed. big sigh!!!!
ok ive closed port 1433 was gonna use it for mumaker remotely but see your point and no i hadnt forwarded the port to ip but have now. i used special application area for ports but now created server port forward in router for 44405,55901,55919,55906 i checked it is 44405 and what should i check in connect server

[JaneX]

well to verifiy if its really open or not, visit this site : canyouseeme.org then try checking the ports 44405, 55901 and 55919 (i only open this ports right now xD) the site will guide you on how to check your port :D

then does your client (the recommended one) goes with 2 mains?(main.exe)

[axxuss]

Hi again
ok webpage says port is not open hmmmm
but the software pfportchecker says
external ip xx.xxx.xx.xx my globalip
ping result we were not able to ping your router
port check result your port is open on this computer both udp/tcp
ive rebooted router to be sure still nothing
and yes there is a main and a original zipped plus i tried another season 6 client it just says you are disconnected from server i make a change and try all clients on a laptop ive got here next to server

[JaneX]

well thats it your port is not open (44405) :) maybe your ISP by default does not allow you to porf forward xD

i dont know if i m right but uhm do u create the server for your kinds only? then there would be norpbole mconnecting then if ur going to host it in lan :)

try contacting ur isp maybe they dont allow port forwarding.

[axxuss]

ok sorry with webpage now says port open server has to be running for it to see it it says open when server is on but my port checker needed server off still nopers on connecting though sigh and id like it to be global for their friends to be able to joini have 5 kids and they have alot of friends ought to see my house on weekends sheeesh

[JaneX]

yeah they needed to be run in order to see if the port checker can pass thru to ur router ;x hmm im running out of ideas xD sorry man thats all i can do :X i never setup season 5 - 6 xD

[axxuss]

Well Janex23 you have been very helpful and your replies led me to a few errors so id call that a win and closer to my goal thank you again hope i can return the favor some day

try this....

go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc

then open HOST with notepad

put SERVER LAN IP then your GLOBAL IP

example:

server lan IP : 192.168.0.101
global IP : 111.111.111.111

Hi Evo1123 thanks i have tried that no change im thinking to test server locally ie lan should i disable loopback what would i have to change server ip wise then? for client just put servers lanip? i just want to loggin once to verify server is working before going anymore for kids friends to loggin

[tutero69]

you can also use HAMCHI if it's only for your

SON and his FRIENDS ,,

anyway Hmmm,, if you are from the Phillippines

and also having that SmartBro ISP

the problem with that is all PORTS were BLOCKED

on that ISP ,,

you can also CHECK your FIREWALL

maybe it is also BLOCKING them

and also on your ROUTER FIREWALL ,,,

HOPE your FREINDS can PLAY so they can ENJOY

MuONline GAMES ,,

GOODLUCK !!!!!
