Server timed out issue
#1
Ok, I so I started my server, and I can join and everything. I forwarded the ports. So I want my friend to join over the Internet. The servers IP is 192.168.1.143. So how can he join my server? He can't. So how do I fix this? How do I get my friends to connect to my external IP? Whenever I try to invite my friend, it just says server timed out.

That Ip is your INTERNAL IP address, no-one else outside your network can use that.

give your friends:

The IP over there will work if port forwarding is done correctly

I know that, but what if I want random people I don't know to join through the Internet Server List?

Your friends cant be invited/join you game through friends list. It would come up as an internal address for them. Just give them your external IP address and if they can join, your server is setup fine.

IF it lists in the server list they can join without problems, since that's automatically your external, only you see the internal.

Thats true..

But because your ip starts at 192 its bad ip your modem ports are closed, its not help if you add game port to port forward but you must open full gate for games in your modules, i just changed modem box to a-link and its work and my ip changed to 91 starting like 91.123.123.12 example..

I just say, change your box Toungue
