Topic: [HELP] getting a server online

hey
i have a very annoying problem:
every time i try start my teeworlds server a message appears in the cmdbox:
ERROR: configure your firewall/nat and let through udp on port 8303.

well i already forwarded port 8303 in udp AND tcp and my firewall is turned off
but the message just won't disappear...

If you forwarded your ports some days ago, your IP might have been changed. Check with ipconfig (Windows)/ifconfig(Linux) and make sure the forwarded port(s) is/are forwarded to the right IP address.

Some ISPs also tend to block all outgoing UDP-traffic. Ask your internet service provider whenever they do this or not.

Re: [HELP] getting a server online

thank you for the fast answers smile
but i haven't forwarded the ports with my WAN IP, so it should work...
by the way i have had to forward ports before (udp ports!) and it worked well,too.
hamachi isn't istalled on my computer...
maybe windows 7 causes the problem !?
