Author Topic: Port Forwarding for the Absolute Dummy  (Read 14105 times)

i think if you have windows XP this doesn't work.

Do you need to forward ports on Macintosh computers?

Of course. But I'm not familiar with macs so I can't really help you out in that field.

I've tried that, but it still didn't work for me... why is that i wonder? I have gotten close though! and is there any way to do this on a Mac?

I have port forwarded but have a problem, the server is dead.

Anything wrong?

I hate no edit. I tried to rehost and when I quit a error showed up, it said that Blockland was searching files and could find my IP.

Im having an issue. Neither my router (non-wireless) and wireless router are not on the list.
Please help.
They're Airlink and Motorola.
Im on an old computer which I dont use much, because my Vista is wireless and I figured since it gets the signal from this computer I should forward the ports on this thing.
I also tried Badspot's tutorial. Didnt work, my router page thing doesnt have the nessecary boxes and such. So what should I do?
Oh and the router pages are the same for both PCs.

i think if you have windows XP this doesn't work.
Works just fine.

Ok, I followed all the steps, I have LinkSYS WRT54G router, and my server shows up dead still. Any Ideas? (I used to know how to do this...)

Chances are you just didn't follow the steps correctly. If your router has remote access and you have MSN I'll configure it for you.

One good way to find out what router you have is type your provider and the name it has on it in google, mine is a 2wire from at&t and the at&t website immediately told me what type it was.

I don't have MSN, but I made a Topic in the Help area, its called "Port Forwarding "Problems"" (-.-;). The reason I'm maybe having these problems since I haven't played in a long time. I'm one the first 1-999 players for this game.

i have a Motorola SB5100 that is not on the list... any help?

I have followed every step and port forwarded 3 times now and still, my server is still dead. I hate my WRT54GS
