Re: Opening ports with linksys router

You cannot see your own server in the Internet tab, although other players may do. Check your console to see if it correctly got registered to the masterservers.

Not Luck, Just Magic.

If your friends cannot see your server, go to www.portforward.com and click on your router model. Skip the advertisement and then go to the "General Tutorial". Follow that and setup port forwards for port 8303/UDP.

Re: Opening ports with linksys router

That looks alright. Do you get any registration errors in your server console (the black box)?

Re: Opening ports with linksys router

then turn off your firewall
If then you server is registered, you can let the teeworlds_srv pass throught firewall
