My Friends Can't Connect To My Server

by PerrySteven » Sat May 09, 2015 03:36

Hello, recently I have made a world which uses the Hades game, viewtopic.php?f=50&t=10801&p=165461&hilit=Hades#p165461, I enabled Port Forwarding, the Port I use is 30000, the name of my world is Colonization, and I have no idea why my friend's can't connect.

They say that they are getting the error "Server not found", but I don't know why.

I am positively sure that I did everything correctly... But I missed something, and I don't know what that is.

Are you sure you've forwarded the UDP port 30000?
Also check if your friends connect to the correct IP.

I have set forwarding ports to both UDP and TCP, and yes, 30000. I am also sure that I gave my friends the right IP address, it's the public one where you can find out here: http://whatismyipaddress.com

I think I solved the problem, but I can't be sure about it. I have checked my firewall settings and realized that my Minetest permissions was only set to be allowed in Private networks. I changed that so that it allows Public Networks, but if you think there is another problem to it then by all means tell me.

I will test it out with my friend on a Saturday this week.
