Routers and connections for dummies. :)

[kfstrong]

I configured port forwarding to my server and set the external IP address in my ServerList.cs, but I'm still having problems.

I have Wireshark running on my server and I can see the TCP packets coming from the PC I'm trying to connect with, but the server doesn't respond to them.

When I start RunUO, it shows the following:

RunUO - [www.runuo.com] Version 2.0, Build 2357.32527
Core: Running on .NET Framework Version 2.0.50727
Scripts: Compiling C# scripts...done (0 errors, 0 warnings)
Scripts: Compiling VB.NET scripts...no files found.
Scripts: Verifying...done (2103 items, 542 mobiles)
Regions: Loading...done
World: Loading...done (91641 items, 1927 mobiles) (4.48 seconds)
Reports: Stats: Loading...done
Reports: Staff: Loading...done
Address: 127.0.0.1:2593
Address: 192.168.1.65:2593


Shouldn't the Address lines at the end show the change I made in the ServerList.cs? I'm using a domain name in the ServerList which resolves to 69.219.xxx.xxx, but RunUO still shows my private address. Does anyone else have this problem?

Thanks!

Connecting...

Hello all.
I am having some issues connecting to my server.
I can get the login screen, pas the credentials and then it just hangs on the connecting screen.

Server shows valid credentials, a connection, then an immediate disconnect.
I have tried locally and externally. Oddly enough my test server worked fine but this one I am having issues with.

I have a Linksys and did everything listed here but cannot even connect locally. My firewall has RunUO as a trusted appliaction, I can ping it fine but cannot connect to the game past the login screen.

Any help anyone can offer me will be greatly appreciated.

[shivanna]

Oh.. my netgear setup is different to this and it doesnt work..

NVM ... this is not cool not working for me

I am so confused. This is not working and i hate routers, they really make me angry. First of all, i followed all the steps for the Linksys router till i got to the serverlist.cs. You said to find this line "public static readonly string Address = null;" There is no line in my script that says that! Now i followed all those steps and i have no idea what i just did to my PC, omg...

EDIT: So i found this line instead /////This detection, however, does not work for servers behind routers. If you're running behind a router, put in your IP: * private const string Address =///// So what IP do i put in, the one that it says on the server.exe or the one on IP chicken? So, i tried putting the on on IP chicken and people still can't connect so then on this line /////If you need to resolve a DNS host name, you can do that too: * private const string Address =///// i put in the host name i previously had on my other modem because my IP wasn't static. now that doesn't work either? wtf?!

Oh.. my netgear setup is different to this and it doesnt work..

My netgear is old but works this way. using lan ip from 196.168.0.2 and up. 192.168.0.2 being my PC on the lan. Sometimes I have to change the lan IP due to power outages and who turns their PC on first after such.

You really do have to go to your routers company homepage and put in your model number to get a decent idea of how to properly port forward on your router.

ok, i got all the way to the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), when i get there i put in the ip address, subnet mask and default gateway, but in cmd, when i get my ip info it dosent give me my DNS Suffix. any sugestions?

 

[brixey2451]

i think i figured it out, i went to my router (using linksys) then under status i put in my first to DNS, right?

well i have a DI-524 802.11g wireless router and i cant figure out how to make a access port because it doesnt have access game ports anywhere and i dont know what to do ....can anyone help me?

 

[applepie]

hmm

hmm when trying to access ur router/modem put your username as admin and pass as cableroot should open access to your forwarding etc this is what i had to do with my new modem

 

[Laged67]

it doesnt work :/

 

[Jasonntn]

Try admin and admin - or maybe admin and 1234. Seems like every router is different, but most are something simple. I found mine on google. You might want to search there.

 

[jumpnjahosofat]

Try posting some screen shots of your router and maybe we can tell you were to put the right numbers

I believe that for D-Link routers, you will need to login to your router using the login and password Adminassword or Admin:Admin. Once inside your router you will need to click the advanced tab at the top and there you will find the port forwarding section. =)
