How i do open my ports - Postby IchoTolot » 10 Aug 2006, 11:55


stolen from http://www.deusexnetwork.com ... Author: ~[A]lex~

Before you actually read this, ask yourself, how many computers in your house are connected to internet? If the answer is more than 1, you are good in coming here.
If you only have 1 computer connected to the internet, but you do have a router, then read this aswell.


A router blocks a lot of unknown internet connections, so if you try to host a Deus Ex server, and you have a router, it is possible that your server will not show up in the server list.
Well, we are going to solve that.

First, go to http://www.portforward.com/routers.htm and lookup your router for the manual on how-to-forward-ports.

When you fully understand the manual on portforward.com, we can continue.

For a deus ex server, we need to forward the following ports:
7790
7791
7792
8777
27900

So... if you know how to forward ports, and you forwarded those ports, it should be just fine, and you should be able to host.

Sometimes it is not only the router which blocks it. After you opened the ports, and it's still not solved, disable the Windows Firewall, just for a test, you can enable this again after testing your server.

How to disable Windows Firewall:
Start >> Configuration >> Classic View (Only if you have Windows XP) >> Network Connections >> Right click on your connection >> Properties >> Advanced
In that menu, you can disable it.
Notice: It is possible that your windows firewall configuraration is somewhere else, if so, try using http://www.google.com/

duude.. it's useless to revive these.. :ney:
Yes, true that you only need those.. but that was not the case back in 2006. Back then those master-servers used to work too.

I revived these, cuz people still post questions about them, i was hoping somebody might sticky them here, so that people like chto dont constantly ask questions that have already been answered a million times.
