bound socket to localhost:4977
-
so i have upnp enabled and when i press f10 under "network" it says my port is 4976 and that people can join with "connect xxxx:4976" but when i start my server i get this line
"Setting net_port to "4976" from command line."
"bound socket to localhost:4977"i changed the port in the server bat file.
when i try to join with my internal ip ending with :4976 im stuck in the loading screen "awaiting connection" but when i join with :4977 it works (friends cant join)
i set up a port some time ago with my MAC adress and the port 4977, now that i enabled upnp yesterday this old port i created some time ago shouldnt be the problem for the "bound socket to localhost:4977" right?
LongDongSilver no, upnp shouldn't affect manual port forwarding rules. The server automatically binds to the next free port and since you are running the game on the same pc (which uses port 4976) it binds to 4977.

im just wondering why when i look up F10"network" its says they can join over 4976 even tough the server is on 4977 is that right? and am i missing something simple because my friends cant join...

LongDongSilver the network tab shows network info for the game, not for any dedicated servers running on the same pc. That is the ip and port ppl can use to join your private match. Dedicated server is the same wan ip but port 4977. (ip:port).

im sorry for bothering you but my friends still cant join what could it be?

LongDongSilver if your server and port forwarding is set up correctly your server should be visible on the serverlist.
post screenshots of:- your server console
- your port forwarding settings
Also try creating a windows firewall rule for incoming traffic on port 4977 udp.

i cant show you my port setting right now because im having issues logging in but i have UPNP enabled (also shows in f10) if that is enough
im connecting with localhost:4977 just in case you need to know that

LongDongSilver dedicated servers don't use upnp, you need to forward the port manually in your router.

can you set a port with a MAC adress because thats the only option i have besides calling them and asking for a port

LongDongSilver can you not access your router's web interface? Well yes a mac should work too instead of an ip.

it works again, so i went into "networksettings" and used my mac adress with the port 4976-4977 UDP but they still cant join... what is going on?

LongDongSilver i don't know? Post a screenshot of those network settings also check if your router has a status page that shows a wan ip, if it does compare that ip with the one you see when you visit this page: https://www.whatsmyip.org/. Are they the same?

None of them match with my ip/ipv6
LongDongSilver i see the problem now.. you have DS-Lite, you don't have a "real" public ipv4 address, just an ipv6 one. Since pluto does not support ipv6 it's not possible for you to host servers at home.
I was in a similar situation a few years ago (same provider) and the only way to get around that is to buy a separate router that you put behind your cable modem and then switch to "bridge mode" on the provider's web panel (you have to login on their website to access that, it's not a modem setting).
