Schnitzelnagler	Does Dream Daemon report that others can join the game? What exactly is 'the connection failed error'?

Leur	So links from the hub such as byond://BYOND.world.1417436019##webid=xxxxx fail, but links like byond://111.111.111.111:1111 work?

If you're clicking the button with the merge icon, that's taking you to your server via the local address. You also need to check that players can connect remotely, by clicking the world's address when it shows up in Dream Daemon and then pasting that into the Open Location... box in the pager. If that works, then people should be able to join your game.

Based on the limited info you've provided, I suspect your router is not configured to allow people to connect to your game, which means you need to set up port forwarding. Dream Daemon should already tell you if the game is accessible or not though.

Tales2008	Thats my problem dream daemon is not giving me any errors but yet my players(as well as myself) cant login from the hub.However, if i login straight from dream daemon, it will work.

Tales2008	I have already port forward and Dream Daemon is not telling nothing.No errors is mentioned after i shut off my firewall but yet players are unable to login from the hub.

Tales2008	I like to also add that whenever i portforward my game shows up live online(But still players cant connect) but my Internets doesn't work.

Tales2008	I have solved my own problem.My problem was that i was port forwarding through my linksys router when it was my vonage router connecting me to the internet.
