Ilias48rus 32 Posted October 21, 2018 Hi, i have dedicated server running with ports forwarded in ,router between the machine and internet, the server is internet discoverable, after i'm trying to connect with rCon by the server's internet ip the rCon stucks with this (192.168.1.3=router's ip), but it looks like it works with local ip. When i'm trying to connect to the server with game it keeps black screen until client kicked for timeout Would highly appreciate any help edit: ports used are default, so all the 5 symbols numbers randomly issued by router's DHCP server i guess. windows,router 's firewalls and antivirus have no effect on this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ilias48rus 32 Posted October 26, 2018 enabling windowsMediaPlayerNetworkSharing service allowed to connect to the server trough inGame "direct connect" using internet IP, but this does not allows to connect trough serverBrowser edit: , rCon still doesn't work; p.s. Thanks to everyone for being so helpful, especially BI which considered that the users do not need to know which OS components required to run their product (though it's probably the only game which depends on such of them) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ilias48rus 32 Posted October 26, 2018 looks like the serversBrowser issue is client side, it present on 1 of 2 tested systems and not related to windows services, router, windows network settings. Wiki updated Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
