Will only work for a dedicated server.

You need to open the port that is in server.ini at "port=".

So: first of all, don't put '0' in there, fill in for exemple 5500.

Then go to your router admin and go to "port forwarding" (sometimes it is called "virtual server"). If you don't know how, check www.portforward.com for your router model.

Open the port 5500 (in my exemple but it can be any port as long as it's the one you enetred in "port=") and forward it to the internal IP of your server. To know the internal IP, go to start menu -> run -> cmd -> ipconfig. It should probably be smth like 192.168.x.x.

That should solve this annoying problem.

Yes but it will be used already (for exemple: 80 is used for http-traffic).

Check your router manual, you should be able to access it. Maybe you got the wrong router ip?

If both people are behind routers and the server has not forwarded the port then they cant connect. If one or the other is NOT behind a router then a connection should always be possible.

Renegade/WOL has a system, which is able to bypass the router in
front of a server. But this system fails if the client sits behind
a router too...

When people ask me "Plz" just because it's shorter than "Please" I feel perfectly justified to answer "No" because it's shorter then "Yes"

Programming is like sex: one mistake and you have to support it for the rest of your life

I was under the impression that the STUN sometimes would work if both the server and client was behind a NAT/firewall, though some routers do not work well with STUN.

EDIT: Should I stick the cool diagram of STUN from the Wikipedia article?
