Hello.
I am having a problem with portfowarding not really sure why. I followed the guide @ portforward.com but I can't seem to fix my current issue. When I use their "PFchecker," I find that TCP protocol fails but UDP succeeds.
Thank You,
Luchasi
Is there a way to directly post images on a thread or replay such as this one.

Get the direct link and put it in between an image tag, like so:

The first two entries for individual TXP and UDP records seem redundant. I think it should work just fine with the third record (TCP or UDP). It could also be that the port 1738 is being used by something else. Try a higher number and see if it happens to fix the issue.

Thank you for responding. I have used multiple ports including 65321.

Well, try hosting something with BYOND, and if you're having issues with it still, we can troubleshoot it further. It may be possible that the PFChecker tool isn't responding correctly.
EDIT: I tried using PFChecker myself and it returned the same result as you for ports I knew that I had open. The software is also incredibly bulky :[ | |
Alright. Are you certain that your local IP is 192.168.0.150? You can check this by using cmd.exe and typing in "ipconfig" to get your local IP address.

Alright. So there's a couple of things we're gonna need to check:
* Do we already have something being hosted on that port (like DreamDaemon being in the taskbar but we forgot about it)? * Does Windows Firewall allow DreamDaemon.exe to host on your computer? You'll wanna look in there to make sure it does. Y'know, when something like this pops up:  That's Windows Firewall asking if it's okay for a specific program to be running on the network. | |
I checked my Task Manager, and there was only 1 DreamDaemon that is runnning.
This the firewall allowed applications.  | |
Not really sure what I am doing wrong. Am I missing something obvious?
| |
Antivirus that is blocking Dream Daemon?
| |
Thank you for responding but I am not at my computer at the time being, I will look into it ASAP. Keep in mind that I am still having an issue with the TCP protocol.
| |
If you're still having trouble, you can contact me on Skype at zngoober and we can try and get this solved using TeamViewer or something.
| |
TCP is the only protocol you need to worry about; UDP isn't used by BYOND.
| |
The issue has be resolved thanks to Mr_Goober. McAfee was the culprit. Thank you for responding Gentlemen.

Some routers usually have the selection for TCP/UDP bundled together, but you may have to enable TCP and UDP protocols for the same port in two records. Can you snap a screenshot of the page which shows the portforwarding stuff in your router's webpage?
