Hi,

Posted about this in the tech support forum but needed quick response.

I am having trouble running a dedicated server. I would really appreciate it if someone would try to connect to my server and see what happens.

The game name is "daves game"

Not sure how long it will be up for so please someone do it as soon as they see this.

THANKYOU!!

Dave.

first off you have to figure out what type of router you have (lynksis.. etc.) find the manual if you have one, and read it; if not you can probably figure out how to do it on their website

Log into router and find the option for it. I forward 63392 in my router..

Netgear RP614 ver 2

Also make sure Windows firewall and any other firewall you have are turned off/ configures correctly.
