RECOMMENDATIONS
===================
* Your server may not even be running; try connecting to it on this computer: run /connect 127.0.0.1:27910 in console I tried this and amazingly I can play on the server and it even shows up on the serverlist. Even more amzing is the fact that the paint grenades never run out. They keep splurting paint :|
* Your server's port may not be forwarded; make sure you forward your ports for UDP port 27910 (and make sure it's set to the right computer address)
* Your server's port may be firewalled; make sure you allow port 27910 through your firewall

3.

4. Port has been forwarded to router. I'm not sure if it blocked or not. I use ZoneAlarm (ZA) Security Suite. I disabled the ZA firewall completely and ran the test above^^ yet nothing different has happened.

Thanks

Are you sure you forwarded it?

4. If this is a home server, make sure you know how to forward the port that your server uses from the WAN side (the port on your router hooked up to your cable modem, dsl modem, or whatever you use to connect to the internet) of your router to the LAN side ( the ports that connect to the pc's at your house) of your router. If you have questions on how to do this, post screen shots of your router config page showing the port forwarding setup.

Yes I'm sure. I used the Quake 2 settings from Forward Port or something.

KnacK · « **Reply #4 on:** August 21, 2008, 07:41:09 PM »

OK that's a start.

Now, SHow the page where you have the ip address assigned to the ports.

This is te best I could find to what you were asking for.

KnacK · « **Reply #6 on:** August 21, 2008, 08:08:13 PM »

whats the make and model of your router?

sohan · « **Reply #7 on:** August 21, 2008, 08:09:03 PM »

Thomson speedtouch 585 v6

Use the Device box to choose a computer to forward ports to. This box contains a list of computer names that are visible on your network. Select the application you created using the Game or Application drop down box. Then click Add to enable it.

Did you do that step?

Errr. Yes I did. I chose 3a, which is the name of my computer. As a double check I also did it with the IP and it automtically converted it to 3a.

Anyone know what the problem is?? :|

Also, would it be possible to use www.10gbfreehost.com to make a server??

Not at all. You need a server you can get a shell to, at the least.

Go to the server troubleshooter again and post your results

what os does your computer have?

KnacK · « **Reply #15 on:** August 23, 2008, 09:48:27 PM »

you havent set up port forwarding correctly OR your windows firewall is blocking it.

sk89q · « **Reply #16 on:** August 24, 2008, 12:38:21 AM »

Or ZA is, even if you disabled it. Enable it and explicitly allow incoming and outgoing data on UDP port 27910 for the application and/or network.

sohan · « **Reply #17 on:** August 25, 2008, 09:55:33 AM »

I'll answer all 3 questions here:

Microsoft XP

Windows Firewall is off and the Ports have been forwarded as its confirmed.

This is what I think the problem is. Getting round it is proving tricky though because ZA is like hell to use.

sohan · « **Reply #18 on:** August 25, 2008, 09:59:46 AM »

There's what I'm faced with. :S :|

KnacK · « **Reply #19 on:** August 25, 2008, 11:19:35 AM »

BINGO!!!

THat's ZA's firewall.

Diable it and see what happens first, then figure out how to set it up.

But, ZA will KILL your server performance as it performs its packet inpections.
