Problem with UpnP
-
Hi, so my friend and I would like to play as a zombie together, we followed the tutorial to connect with our friends and also with the "connect + ip of the host" but nothing works. My UPnP is activated but my friend's is not. After having followed the tutorial of the forum nothing changes, it doesn't come from its rooter because we checked that the functionality was well activated. We also changed the ports as explained in the forum but still nothing. The firewall doesn't play any role because we didn't find a file corresponding to the T6 in it. Please help us we are at the end of our strength. If someone can contact me discord : CapoHugo #8480

Whoever is hosting may have to just port forward, sometimes UPnP implementations are broken (my old router had broken UPnP). Follow this guide with initial setup. The host will have to search up how to port forward on their router. It seems like according to you, your friend is hosting. His router may not support UPnP either so he would have to follow the instructions.

homura thx man, btw it's me who wanted to host the game coz that my UPnP is activated, so the only way to play privately with my friends is to create a server or while my friend changes his fucking rooter, right?

I would say so, yes.

CapoHugo if you or your friend needs a router that needs to have upnp there is this router from amazon

It's what I have and I can tell you 100% that upnp works with this

Basically any router where OpenWRT can be installed would work, as on OpenWRT the UPNP version can be forced to v1 which is the only version supported.
