Unable to connect via WAN

[AndyMeps]

Hey Guys!

I've had a flick through these forums and tried a few of the solutions mentioned, but none seem to have any affect, heres a brief overview:

TS2 Server running on Windows Server 2003 RC2.
Accessable via PC inside the LAN (using local IP).
Only one IP showing in the "My IPs" (192.168.1.69 - Local IP).
I have a Dynamic IP.
Port 8767 has been forwarded on my router (BT Home Hub First Edition) using the guide on portforward.com.
I have a registered domain to the server via DynDNS.org.
I have tried turning off and on ICS to no avail.
Teamspeak Test results:

Performing UDP test...
» Establish a connection with the server
» Verify that it is a TeamSpeak 2 server
» Perform connection handshake
» Retreive a list of active channels

ALL Error 3

Performing TCP test...
» Establish a connection with the server
» Verify that it is a TeamSpeak 2 server
» Retreive the servers global information

ALL Error 1

Performing HTTP test...
» Establish a connection with the server
» Verify that it is a TeamSpeak 2 server
» Retreive the servers version information

ALL Error 1

I'm open to any suggestions, i just can't seem to put my finger on the issue; thanks in advanced.

You need to open more then just the UDP port for the server itself, you need to open the following on the router as well.

HTTPServer Port=14534
TCPQueryPort=51234

Those are the defaults and can be changed in the server.ini file where the TS Server was installed.

Hey tstransporter; I originaly had those ports forwarded too, however reading a few extra threads I saw posts stating that it wasn't necessary to have those open; so removed them. I then checked portforward.com, and it showed them as added, so I added them again :rolleyes: Still showing only 1 IP in the list.

See Attachment for screenshot of my forwarding settings.

Don't listen to this. You do not need anything but 8767/udp (default) to be able to talk on your server.

Well, that topic asking to post in that same topic... and not with images. You know you can copy text from console window as text?


Well, to your issue.
You have your server configured to receive IP address through DHCP. It's suspicious. Plese try to set your IP address manually (something like 192.168.1.10).
After you have done that, check if you have proper server address/port/service type set in port forwarding settings on your router.
JFYI, your screenshot of router configuration showing wrong place. It is port trigger settings, not port forwarding settings.

[tctransporter]

It shouldn't matter whether it's port forwarding or triggering, it's basically the same concept as it opens the ports.... lol

Also neither should the "DHCP" as the TS does not need an IP binded to it, I ran it like that before behind a router with no problem at all so I don't see it as "Suspicious".

Anyway I tried to help. :)

Please hide from this forum, you do not have any knowledge in the area you're speaking about.

Cheers for the reply.

I know but i'd rather keep my issue in one place, not pages and pages through another thread where my issue might get swamped by other users issues ;) Yeah I did know, just woke up when i wrote that reply so wasn't thinking straight.


Well, to your issue.

Done; although can't seem to find where i can change the IP assigned, so its currently static as 192.168.1.67.


After you have done that, check if you have proper server address/port/service type set in port forwarding settings on your router.

Not entirely sure what you mean by this, port forwarding settings are assigned to devices. Which it is currently assigned to my TS / Web server.


JFYI, your screenshot of router configuration showing wrong place. It is port trigger settings, not port forwarding settings.

Oh.. going by Portforward.com it didn't say anything about setting up a port trigger as well... but i've added it to the device anyway..

Still only showing 1 IP; i'll do another TS2test check and see if anything has changed..


EDIT: Tried the TS2test webpage again, no change in error codes.. :S

Ok then if you know what you are doing I'll stay away as you wish from this thread, but will not "Hide from this forum" just because you think you know it all.....

Hope you can get it fixed. AndyMeps :)

Done; although can't seem to find where i can change the IP assigned, so its currently static as 192.168.1.67.

It's on your server, Control Panel -> Networking -> Your LAN interface
Open IPv4 configuration screen and change IP address from autoassigned to manual and enter something in range of your router LAN.

Not entirely sure what you mean by this, port forwarding settings are assigned to devices. Which it is currently assigned to my TS / Web server.

Nope. Port forwarding settings assigned to address:port/protocol, in fact. They don't care about device where that IP address reside.

Oh.. going by Portforward.com it didn't say anything about setting up a port trigger as well... but i've added it to the device anyway..

Short explanation: port trigger is for applications that going out to internet and need to receive data independently or on a different port, like FTP clients.
TS server is a whole other issue.

Still only showing 1 IP; i'll do another TS2test check and see if anything has changed..

It should, it's normal.

EDIT: Tried the TS2test webpage again, no change in error codes.. :SPlease show your port forwarding configuraion screenshot.

[AndyMeps]

Hey, here are the screenshots of my forwarding, i changed the IP to static 192.168.1.10.

I'm starting to think that my router is buggered actualy, since i changed from DHCP to static IP assignment my wireless PC (my main desktop PC) has lost its connection and the wireless adapter is struggling to find the router (which is literaly 10 inches away, through a thin concrete wall... >.< But thats a whole different matter..

Glad to tell you guys that the problem is resolved, with the help of Tomas (forum member) he was able to locate the issue;

For reference it turned out to be the firewall settings, you need to create a new rule allowing the port forward, should look something like this when set up:

source interface: WAN
source address: map_XX_8767-8767:C0A8010A
User Defined: (Leave Blank)
destination interface: LAN
destination address: map_XX_8767-8767:C0A8010A
user defined: (Leave Blank)
Service: Any
Action: Allow

Note: you need to set up the Port Forwarding under Application Sharing before the appropriate map address will appear in the drop down list for source / destination address.


Cheers for all the help guys, and special thanks to Tomas for helping me out, much love.

Andy.

That's what I told you.
Port forward, not port trigger.

[Tomas]

one note: we did setup the firewall on router/modem device with that.
and I think destination had user defined to the TeasmSpeak LAN IP

[ANR Daemon]

On most routers, firewall set for protection by default, also when you creating portforwarding rules, it making exceptions for these rules automatically too.
You should not touch router's firewall unless you want to call troubles on your ass or you sure know it's required in order for everything to work properly.

well maybe on most for u but not for me
my modem/router requires it I am sure cuz when I forgot add firewall allow ....
and as for this problem here in this thread it was same be4 I added that firewall rule test to connect was FAIL.

soo sry not for most cases
