RC2 Can't Connect (NETGear) - RunUO

Makaar · 09-10-2008, 01:13 AM

And here I am once again.

-I'm using SVN 297 and patch 610.
-Using a month old NetGear router.
-Updated the firmware.
-Got Mr.Fixit's latest compatible serverlist.cs.
-Opened ports 5001-5010, 7775-7777, 7875-7875, 8800-8900, 9999-9999 in the router.

Nobody can connect to me from outside of my router-system. People on my network can just fine, but it doesn't even say people outside of my router are even attempting to. I have no firewall on either.

Any help? I'm about to take the router back and punch someone in the face.

Before I was using a Linksys and had no problems whatsoever.

Thanks!

Why you opened that ports?
You have to open port 2593 (TCP and also UDP) since you don't change it.

It turned out to be a hardware malfunction of some kind according to ISP. They replaced the router, and everything works fine now. Thanks for the help though, I actually got this second router to replace the netgear one and people still couldn't connect then I jumped on here and saw this....I always forget to reopen ports when getting a new router. But apparently the last one was a dud.

Appreciate the help!
