Topic: My Server + Server List

Just quickly, is it true that when you host a server you can't see your own server in the server list under the "Internet" tab, but instead you can only see it under the LAN tab?

Is there a way of getting it to show up so the host can see it in the Internet server list? Have I done something wrong?

Thanks.

Re: My Server + Server List

I see my servers in the Internet-tab, but I have heard about people who only could see it in the LAN-tab. It was a long time since I last heard about it though... However, you get slightly better ping if you connect to the one showing up in the LAN-tab, as the connection don't have to go in a loop to the outside of your network.

Used to be very active waay back

It still happens to me, so I guess it's a firewall problem.

But you can join easily your server by typing localhost:8303 instead of your ip.

It's your firewall not accepting inside connections to the external ip. Nothing to do about it, it's a wrongly configured firewall.
