CANT HOST -help plz - THX

[testing101]

hello fellas , i have being playing DCS for the last 6 month. I have tired countless HOSTING methods to which i have found on other threads for the last months to no success: here they are.:book:

 

 

UPNP : universal plug and play.

 

PORT FORWARDING.

 

DMZ.

 

FIREWALL OFF.

 

ANTIVIRUS OFF.

 

Even with all of this at the same time i was never able to get my server on the MP LIST.( had friend checking)

 

i figured i would ask for some suggestion before i give up the dream of hosting :doh:

try a direct ip connect. set up server then give your friend the ip and see if they can connect

You are not alone. I myself cannot host for the life of me. i have done everything you listed. Then there are the ones that just do it with out any problems. I will be watching this thread.

are you making sure it's an internet server and not lan? i know it's obvious, but never know...

Did you turn off the firewall service, or just in the system settings?

Did you try to ping each other with the ping promt?

Not that comment will help! it wont, i know.

 

Back when blackshark first came out i had this issue. it was commented by a russian ED tester that there was an inferior aspect to how it was coded. whilst it wasnt specific enough for me to describe, basicly my "router" wasnt too compatable with how the networking was coded. possibly this might be still an issue, which was resolved as stated with the release of a10. Since then i have been able to host ok.
