Which ports do I have to open for running a server behin my router ??

[GIG]

Yesterday I tried to run my own vc-mp server. I got everything fine and I could also join my server, but nobody else could. So my question is which ports at my router do I have to open (5192, 5315 ). And what have other players to do that  they can join the server. I am using the FritzBox 7170 (if anybody knows it). Hope you can help me  .

Oh thanks i did not see it.

All right I opened now port 5192 and 5315. But it still doesn't seem to work. How can I find out my correct IP Adress which I have to give to the other players

Start > Run > cmd > ipconfig /all

if you are playing on port 5192, you may also need to open up 5193

I tried it how explained above. I opened port 5192 and 5315, then I gave my Ip to my friends, but it still didn't work. I thought it has something to do with my firewall so i shut it down, but this still had no effect.
What shall I do now??

Ps. My server is configurated correctly

If your server is running you can join ur server on ip 127.0.0.1 always!

[GIG]

Yes I can always join, thats not the problem. I want that other players can join over the internet.

[Tanner]

What's you internet? If neoplus (dynamic IP) then other player what have static Ip can't join your server.

[GIG]

I have dynamic IP, but all my friends have it too. If you use DSL (like I do) you normally get every 24 hours a new IP.

[Tanner]

Install hamachi - it gives you the static IP, but other players what wanna join ur server have to start hamachi too and join you network.

[GIG]

I am sorry, but I cannot use Hamachi. This programm just works under windows xp and I have Windows Me. Is there not another possibility to launch a server

[Winky]

hmm http://www.no-ip.org i though (its just an idea)

[GIG]

Mmh seems interesting, i will look if it helps me.

Sometimes the Internet Service Provider (ISP) doesn't allow you to open ports. Your router of course thinks it can successfully forward ports, but the connections never reach through the service provider servers.
