Author Topic: Can't join UPnP servers  (Read 5788 times)

Servers that are hosted with UPnP enabled appear dead (---) to me and I can't join them. This happens even when the host has forwarded ports but still has UPnP enabled in blockland network options.

I've seen a few topics with the same problem before but no solution other than the host disabling UPnP, and I've had this problem for as long as I can remember, but it only happens when I play from a certain location/router (when I play from a different location/router, the same servers still appear --- but I'll be able to join them).

So yeah, how do I fix this?

Would like to know this too

I guess no one knows why this happens. it seems like badspot would have addressed this at some point since it effects a large group of people

If you also can't join servers while others can, please post here. I want to see how many people have this problem, and hopefully get attention from the higher ups so this will be fixed.

bump. any solutions? any knowledge as to the cause?


At rare moments when I can actually join servers with my quality internet from 1987, I can join those "---" servers.

how do you deal with the 27 years of lag

1. He deserves a big fat cookie for doing so.
2. He probably never felt actual sanity, so he is forced to live with lag, becoming immune to insanity and lag.
3.  :cookie:


If I remember, I tried going into the console to connect that way, and it sometimes help connects.
You just type connectToServer("IP:Port"); , so a local game would be like "127.0.0.1:28000".

Can't you do it with localhost?
