My Server I Not Showing Up On Master Server

[00E]

My Server isn't showing up on the Master Server! Can this be fixed? Post below

Yes it can!

I'd bet that you don't have your port forwarding set up on your router... go to the Modding Resource and look for the "Dedicated Server Section"

Go through the stuff on port forwarding...

Here's one of the links... a site that tells how to forward lots of routers.

http://www.portforward.com/routers.htm

You'll need to set it to forward ports 28000-28010. It will need to be set up to use UDP, too. This was the part that was trickiest for me to get going.

@ LGM but where do I find that on that list it's HUGE!

[LGM]

The list is alphabetical by maker...

Under each brand name are the model numbers. You could search the page for your router maker... (Linksys, DLink...)

Then, when you find the brand, look for your model number under the name... easy.

Then, you'll get directions on what to do to forward the router you have. Don't give up.

how do u know what type your Computer is?

OK, more basic problem then...

It's not the computer. It's the router.

If you are running a single computer hooked up to a cable modem, I don't know how to help you if it won't show up. Maybe you have a firewall running on the computer and need to make an exception for port 28000-28010 using UDP.

I assume you are running through a router, which allows more than one computer to use the Internet connection at the same time. The ethernet cable from your computer should go to a router. Follow it to see. The box it goes to is the router. (or if wireless, it's the wireless base station)

Find the brand name and model of the router from that list and then see if you can get it going, if not, post some more.

^very good information.

How many times have you ran it? it could be because its not running long enough and/or there are already 20 Master Servers.
