Deus Ex Alpha

Hi, im trying to host a server but it won't let me. I tried following the guide at the top but its still not working. I forwarded all the ports, I don't have a router just a single user modem. No software firewall is running on my PC. I can see my server under LAN but not on multiplayer. Here's a log from the server starting up if it helps....

thank you in advanced for looking over this and any replies I may receive

Can you see your server in the list of servers with your IP instead of name and ping 9999? (You know - these "nameless" servers appear in the end of the list if you wait 30-40 seconds after all others loaded).

no, and I noticed I can connect to it by "open 192.168.x.x" at the splash screen so I know only people on my lan would be able to see and connect to it. I just don't understand what I'm missing so the server would be seen by everyone.

The only thing I can think of stopping me is this part of the log, then again I have no clue, lol.

Nah, epicgames master server has been down for years I think, atleast it's not the MS everyone uses, as long as master0.gamespy.com is resolved it'll be fine.

just to double check, this is what I currently have forwarded, its correct...right?

Yeah its all right.. o_o

If you haven't already read it check the sticky;

Make sure no firewall is blocking it and stuff.

Hello Van,

If correct, you have both a modem and a router?
If you do have two physical devices (Thus two pieces of hardware), please check if your modem also has routing functions.

Some modems (like ZyXEL) do have routing functions, thus also require to be portforwarded.
If you can tell me the brand of your modem, I might be able to help you out.

Open port 7730.

What graphics card do you use? I'd like to compare PC's, seeing as no one that plays dx can afford core 2 duo.

Hey, dude you are weird
Port 7730 doesn't have to be open.

dumbass, again

EVGA GTX 280 Superclocked 3 way SLI

I Have dual core 2...


And, Van should answer what modem+Router he has.. -_-#

My apologies for the delay, I have a motorola 2210 single user modem, only firewall is the default windows firewall, besides the one built into the modem of course.

See if you are able to do a similar thing as the guide describes.

It does not meen you cant afford. Mu parents wouldnt pay so much for a comp Oh and 5 children living here, pointless paying £500+

yes I followed that guide from the beginning before I even made this thread.

Alright.

Your situation is like this?

World Wide Web -> Modem -> Router -> Your PC?

Is that correct?
If so, could you please give me the brand of your router.

I don't have a router in this setup.

Internet > Single user modem > PC

Van, seeing you say that you run no firewall and no routers, the most probable possibility is something on the side of your ISP. Give their support a call, maybe?

Well the modem i have has a firewall as well, so i would still check that

You are correct fatman, as posted above.

The only other thing I guess thats stopping me is, at one point I had comodo firewall and when I tried to uninstall it it did not go well, my windows firewall is stuck on and im unable to turn it off(the area is greyed out, yeah its weird) that is the only other thing I would think that could stop me although I've never neeever had trouble with windows firewall, so this would be a first. I've even disable the firewall built into the modem and that did nothing. Unfortunalty my ISP is retarded and wouldn't know what to do, they would try to help me of course, but it wouldn't be anything that I haven't already done (portforwarding/turning off firewall/ip passthrough).

I guess God hates me and doesn't want me to host a server. Thanks anyway for all your support.

Oh yeah in Russia they give away free quad core duos I forgot.

7730 worked for me, Batch told me to open and it worked.

Your ISP may have a NAT which is blocking your ports. I haven't heard that Western providers ever set up NAT, but it's worth giving a shot (in Russia NAT is a common practice and they ask for a monthly fee to disable it, they call it "getting a fixed external IP").

What is your OS? (XP/Vista?)

7730 worked for me, Batch told me to open and it worked.

He only told you to do that so he could steal your internets. 7730 isn't used for anything <_<. (Unless you change it to be used).

My internet is something like 256K.

Off-topic but, Kaiden are you chinese? Or come from a far-eastern country?

Please try not to go off topic in Tech Issues

And "Location: England, Uk."

Observation is a good thing

yay got it working!!! I forgot to release/renew after the ip passthrough the first time I did it. >_>

Congrats, Van

I'm glad you fixed it, these guys were really having to think hard
