Luvac Zantor Posted May 3, 2002 Share Posted May 3, 2002 Ok please read through. I have a network in my home, running firewall,nat,router, etc.. there is one server we CANT connect to at the same time... however 98% of the servers out there WE CAN. I've already tried net_port and changing the client port to NO AVAIL. Also, we ARE able to join other servers just fine. My thoughts go back to a cvar I think from Q2 that would prevent multiple people joining from the same IP. There must be another such setting in Jedi. Any suggestions? Thanks!!!!!

Luvac Zantor Posted May 3, 2002 Author Share Posted May 3, 2002 is there a CVAR setting?!?!? any suggestions where to start my search? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jk2eservers Posted May 3, 2002 Share Posted May 3, 2002 Correct me, if i'm wrong but dosent the floodprotect setting stop more than 2 players joining from the same IP? seta sv_floodProtect "1" // Helps keep clients from flooding server -r00t3d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvac Zantor Posted May 3, 2002 Author Share Posted May 3, 2002 i don't know, maybe. I'll try it, any other suggestions? (oh and thanks for responding!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatrixCPA Posted May 3, 2002 Share Posted May 3, 2002 Most servers have sv_floodProtect "1" set, so I'd think that being able to connect to 98% of the servers out there would rule that one out. You say you've tried setting net_qport on both of your clients to different ports before connecting? It's possible that that one server is running through a particular firewall that doesn't handle such things well. You should be happy that it's just one instead of more.

Luvac Zantor Posted May 3, 2002 Author Share Posted May 3, 2002 well i can't be happy it's my clan's oc12 server (we co-admin this one currently) and my wife and friend who rents aroom from me play as well. so I must find a way!!!!! and yes, I'm starting to suspect it's the firewall, because the connections DO go through one.

Luvac Zantor Posted May 3, 2002 Author Share Posted May 3, 2002 oh and the server is 24.129.15.204 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatrixCPA Posted May 3, 2002 Share Posted May 3, 2002 If the firewall is the problem, have you considered making the server the firewall/router? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dashel Posted May 4, 2002 Share Posted May 4, 2002 I have the exact same problem but I can play all other games (HL, UT, MoHAA, Q3TA, etc) fine through my Linksys router but when I try and connect to the same server from my LAN I get a 'dup connection' error. Hopeing that net_qport command will do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatrixCPA Posted May 4, 2002 Share Posted May 4, 2002 Just FYI, you need to specify a port number after net_qport and this setting needs to be done client-side not server-side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvac Zantor Posted May 4, 2002 Author Share Posted May 4, 2002 this server is running on the backbone of AT&T broadband in jacksonville.... so the firewall isn't a "computer". You think all of Jacksonville would be funneled through a Win2k router? anyways, I don't have direct access to the firewall itself, but the more tests I do, the more I'm seeing that it's not client side.

MatrixCPA Posted May 4, 2002 Share Posted May 4, 2002 Well, since you don't have access to the firewall, that could be a problem. Experimentally, have you tried setting the JK2 server to use a port within the range of the other games that have worked? Perhaps an admin opened those ports specifically for those games and you can just "hijack" one to test out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
