Server Problem

[FuRiiOuS]

Trying to start my own server but the only problem is I can only join my server when the the ip is 192.168.1.5 or 127.0.0.1. Ive tried port forwarding and turning off the firewall but no help there. Can anyone help me out?

Make sure port 2003 is open using this.

Can anybody else join your server?

[FuRiiOuS]

No, no one can join the server. Ive tried port forwarding and it still wont work

Error: I could not see your service on 69.0.0.93 on port (2003)

Reason: Connection refused

[Towncivilian]

You probably port forwarded incorrectly. What is your router model?

[FuRiiOuS]

Netgear Wireless Router model WPN824v3

I successfully port forwarded ports 2003 to 4003 and i still can't connect the server.

Please paste the contents of your hosts file found in "%systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\", as well as your mtaserver.conf found in the Multi Theft Auto folder. Use Pastebin instead of posting it here.

You only need to forward port 2003 for the server to function and 2126 if you want your server listed on Game-Monitor. Are you using those port for any other application on your network?

Its ok I got it now. But how do i get my server to get listed on Game-Monitoring? I'm going to try to make a MTA Client that instead of using ASE as the server browser i will have it get the servers from Game-Monitoring.

You can view MTA:VC server listings here.

Is there anyone that can host my server for free? 24/7 possibly for free. I have people in my server but the only problem is they lag when they want to play.
