[Arcemu] Need help getting public.

Stuck at connected = port is blocked, by firewall or router.

[Orgtar]

I have checked firewall and all is correct but Im not sure if I portforwarded correct, Could you or anyone else use teamviewer to check?

[Orgtar]

Edit :
Wait a minute, I checked where my ports was forwarded to and it was 'deathwow.servegame.org' when my host is '.com' maybe that was the problem?

[stoneharry]

Yes. The router forwards the ports to your internal IP, not the external IP (and the domain points to the external IP).

Basically make the ports forward to your internal IP.

[Orgtar]

People are still getting stuck on Connecting

[stoneharry]

You need to find out what you did wrong, or what is blocking that port. Try disabling your firewall temporarily.

Ok just waiting for a tester

[Orgtar]

I tried turning off. Didnt work... Any other solutions?

Work out how to port forward for your specific router via google and trial and error. You need to get those ports open so people can connect to your logonserver.

It is possible that the domain is not working - try getting people to connect to the external IP not the domain.

[Orgtar]

Well my Domain is connected to my Internal IP. Is that wrong?

[stoneharry]

Domain should be external IP.

Test connecting to external IP, if that works you know your ports are fine, and you just then need to get the domain working.

[Orgtar]

Well if people change their realmlist to my external IP is that a bad thing as they may track me downzz!

[Orgtar]

THANKS! IT WORKS +rep

lol. As soon as you open ports, or connect to the internet, your computer as it risk. Any website you go to can track your operating system, give you potential viruses, track you down to your house, etc. And a lot don't care about keeping you anonymous.

There is nothing to fear about giving out your IP. A domain just points to a IP, so when you give out your domain someone can find your ip in about 5 seconds. And you don't need to have any computer knowledge to get it.

Thanks alot anyway its up now and I am starting my Beta Testing for my server
