Author Topic: Dead Ping?  (Read 3033 times)

Kaphix and I and some others are wondering why our servers won't work..

In ping it says  DEAD.

And when we try to join eachother it brings up.

The server has dropped the connection:
      Authentication Failed.

Yeah ive seen thats sometimes too, it just says can not connect to server for me

im thinking it has somthing to do with this $Pref::Net::LagThreshold = "400";

This means that your ports aren't forwarded correctly

Hmm..that sucks then. Oh I think i know!

Don't we turn off the "Block WAN Request" thing?

I can't remember,... haven't hosted in a long time. Also how do I know what 192.168.1.??? to port it to for my computer?

1?
100?
Website to check?

tutorial here http://blockland.us/portforward/

In the very last window where it says "use the following ip address" thats the ip you forward to.

Basically you set your computer to use a static ip, then you make your router forward to that ip
