Dedicated hosting is the way 2 go

This is happening to me as well, but for some reason I was able to host fine before hand

Me and a friend are both unable to host now. Even with ports forwarded, and firewall disabled.
In fact his server don't even go on the list anymore. it was fine before.

Try restarting your router by unplugging it, waiting several seconds, and then plugging it back in. Then start your server.

You are not helpful... Trust me.



Go to Control Panel, switch to Large or Small icons, go to Windows Firewall, go on the left-side panel "Turn Windows Firewall on or off" and turn both off. Then try again. Don't close this window in case there's no difference.

Even with the firewall on and the game on permitted, I had --- ping. When I disabled it completely suddenly poof; it worked. I am pretty sure this would need a server restart so rather don't do this in-game anyway. Also keep that firewall window open to enable both again if that doesn't work for you. Though that's what gave me the fix with the exactly same problems.

I love how everyone just ignored you as if what you have to say is completely irrelevant.

I completely agree with you. Dedicated server hosting is much better than off of the client for a lot of different reasons. And it works.

Welp, time to leave my semi-unprotected to host a server.
If you need to port forward, your router already has a firewall. You only need a software firewall if you're on an unprotected or untrustworthy network, such as a hotspot, or internet cafe.

Err, oops. I didn't realize I'd already responded here and said to try that.

You're doing something wrong, if 50 or 100 other people (including me) are able to host servers (I understand some users use UPnP) by port forwarding then its something on your part. If your friends server doesn't even go on the list anymore then something is wrong with his Blockland because regardless if you port forward if you launch a BL server it will show up in the list.
