Xenoeye Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 My server works if I bypass the router, so it must be causing the problem. Any idea how to fix this error with a Linksys 41?

GoofsPij Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 Nope, I don't think it'll work behind a NAT device. Some programs simply don't (MSN Messenger for example), no matter what port range you forward. I have a BEFSR41 myself, I feel your pain bro... You could try upgrading your firmware (of the "router"), and then try using the DMZ...that's about all I can suggest.

Xenoeye Posted May 1, 2002 Author Share Posted May 1, 2002 Uh, Ive already upgraded it. I wish you could just turn off the bloody firewall on this thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenoeye Posted May 1, 2002 Author Share Posted May 1, 2002 I can use MSN and Windows Messenger fine through the router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaustin1 Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 I know I've already posted this a zillion times or so, but... I have the BEFSR11 which, I believe, is identical to the BEFSR41 just without the extra ports. I am running the Ded. server with no problems. Go check out Absolute Maulage CTF/Jedi Master!

Xenoeye Posted May 2, 2002 Author Share Posted May 2, 2002 whats your settings then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaustin1 Posted May 2, 2002 Share Posted May 2, 2002 Search for my posts; I've posted my server config at least a couple of times. On the Linksys, I only have UDP port 28070 open and forwarding to my server. It's visible in the browser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnderScootDav Posted May 4, 2002 Share Posted May 4, 2002 We had to download an older firmware and then it worked fine. Here is a link: ftp://ftp.linksys.com/pub/befsr41/befsr-1-39.zip The newer firmware seems to cause problems. You will have to reopen the ports after installation and the password goes back to default. P.S. I wish I could take credit for this but I got this solution from another forum.

Celeron Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 You should not be setting Jedi Knight to the outside address of your Linksys router. For example, your server config should use whatever the computer's ip address is. If you are using the default linksys settings, that is 192.168.1.xxx. I have the same router as you, and I'm not having any problems. To connect to your server from another one of your machines that is behind the router, you should connect to the internal ip address listed above. Everyone in the outside world will connect to your outside wan IP address. Hope this helps... Celeron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mInk3nine Posted May 7, 2002 Share Posted May 7, 2002 you have to put +set net_ip 192.168.1.xxx either in your server.cfg or the shortcut's command line. /me reads the above post again.... derr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noghri_ViR Posted May 7, 2002 Share Posted May 7, 2002 Ok when I get my server running my client can't get a list of servers via the Internet. I can see my local server but sometimes I want to play elsewhere. When I have the server running on 28080 some people can't connect but I can get a list on my client. But when I run it on 28070 then people can connect to my server but my client can't see outside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFuriousX Posted May 8, 2002 Share Posted May 8, 2002 To connect to your server from another one of your machines that is behind the router, you should connect to the internal ip address listed above. so if my friend wants to connect to the Server im running behind the router....he should be using the IP being assigned by the Modem?

Entropy077 Posted May 8, 2002 Share Posted May 8, 2002 Yes, he would connect to your WAN (cable/DSL-assigned IP) address, not your LAN (192.168.1.xxx) address. I've managed to run the DS fine using the BEFSR41 router. All I did was forward ports 28060 through 28081 to the computer running the server (192.168.1.3 in this case), using both TCP and UDP protocols (not just UDP). Apparently it works fine, because I had it up for a couple of hours and people were connecting to it that I did not even know (so it must have been showing up on the server list). I did notice the client can't get the server list when you've got the server running on certain ports. The problem is, the client is trying to get the list through port 28070(?), but when the information gets sent back, the router forwards it to the server, not the client. Makes sense if you think about it. Unfortunate side-effect of running a dedicated server off of a $80 home router Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonk-raider Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 Well heres my new problem..server works..great but now if i leave it once and attemp to come back it connects me and then shows me a picture of a model looking away from me with one of those sent droids above ti then tells me server disconnected error.. WHY CANT IT BE EASY... oh and anyonje have any ideas how to make file sharing programs work like kaza??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaustin1 Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 Mine works just by forwarding port 28070 on the Linksys to the internal IP address of the server machine. None of those other ports are forwarded. I don't have the net_ip command ANYWHERE. I can connect locally using the local IP, I can see all servers on the Internet, and everyone can see mine (and connect) on the Internet.

Noghri_ViR Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 I figured out a way to get both the client and the server to work at the same time. First my server is set to run on port 28070 and traffic on that port is forwarded to my server. So I just made a short cut to the mulitplayer exe file on my client and added a "+set net_port 28071" to the end of the command. Now everything works fine and I can get a master server list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonk-raider Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 well i just made a range of ports for it to use : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
