I can connect but know one else can...

[chriswin8]

I play an MMORPG and my clan/guild asked me to set up a TS server. I told them sure. I have been working on this for about 5 hours now and am losing my mind.

Ok here is the issue. I am attempting to set up the windows verson. I have the Server up and running. I can connect with my LIP (Lan IP), but no one can connect form the EIP (External IP). Please help.

Things I have done:
I have a Netgear RP114 4 port DSL Router.
I have forwareded ports 8767-8768.
I recycled the Router after I set up the forwarding.

I called and asked my buddy who has a TS server up and running only on Linux to scan my ports (using Nmap) he told me ports 8768-8768 where not open. Him and I tinkered for about an hour before he had to go, no success.

Ok so my question is 2 fold.
1) How do I get those ports open.
2) Is there anything else wrong.

I will leave my server running. So you can try to connect.
EIP 141.149.242.100
LIP 192.168.0.2
PW wolfpack

If there is anything else you want to know let me know.

Oh I will be playing the MMORPG, and running the TS Server on the same machine. Do you think there will be an issue.

This sounds like a router problem.
- Have you checked the manufacturers webpage, e.g. a firmware update ?
- On some routers the new forwarding rule may take some time till it gets used => better do a reboot
- You have forwarded protocoll UDP, not TCP ?
- 8767 is the default port, not 8768 !
- check the link in m&m's signature, port forwarding for your router is described there (PS: THIS is NOT a router forum)

depending on your bandwidth you may get lag (see bandwidth FAQ).
concerning connection possible or not, this is not related, you may use both a t the same time
