What port?

[mrfusker]

Hello

For some time, I have tried to get my server up and running.

My server is running on a Windows 7 Pro x64 SP1 and I can play on the server on LAN.
But for some reason, the server are never shown in Doomseeker.
My server is using port 10666 and I have made NAT for the server and I have also made port forwarding, but no luck.
And for some reason, my Zandronum server, are changing port 10666 to a different in public.

What I have done wrong?

You need to forward a range of ports.
10666 to 10700.

I think that will fix your problem.

The master server uses port 15300 I believe, try opening that.

Make sure you actually have the port open (like pointing to the right local computer).

See what it says in the console window, it should say what port it used. If you still have problems, you can host for free with Best Ever (anything you want [common sense applies]).

Rebooting the PC + router reportedly fixed the problem with wrong port being advertised for some players. Make sure you follow the port forwarding guide also.

You don't need to forward any other port than the one that you use for your server, by default 10666.

Like Arcade said, I always found it helpful to open 10666 to 10668 just in case 10666 is being used for anything.

I was having a similar issue a long time ago until I looked and realized that port 10666 was unavailable in the server dialog, and defaulted to 10667.

I changed the port fra 10666 to 10667.
I did also change NAT from 10666 to port 10667, and opened port 10666-10670 in my in- and outbound rules.
But still no luck.
I'm using Windows Firewall from Windows Server 2008 R2 in a non-domain environment and Routing and Remote Access service. I have disabled the local firewall on the Zandrorum server computer.
